Greensleeves

Anon, 16th. Cent.

A[Em]las my [G] love, you [D] do me [Bm] wrong,
To [Em] cast me off so dis[B]courteously,
For I [Em] have [G] loved [D] you oh so [Bm] long,
De[Em]lighting [B7] in your [Em] company.

Chorus:
[G] Greensleeves was [D] all my [Bm] joy,
[Em] Greensleeves was [B] my delight,
[G]Greensleeves was my [D] heart of [Bm] gold,
And [Em] who but my [B7] lady [Em] greensleeves.

Your vows you've broken, like my heart,
Oh, why did you so enrapture me?
Now I remain in a world apart
But my heart remains in captivity.

I have been ready at your hand,
To grant whatever you would crave,
I have both wagered life and land,
Your love and good-will for to have.

So, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu,
To God I pray to prosper thee,
For I am still thy lover true,
Come once again and love me.
