[Verse 1]
Am C G Em
Alas my love, you do me wrong,
Am E
to cast me off discourteously.
Am C G Em
For I have loved you so long,
Am E7 Am
delighting in your company.
[Chorus]

Greensleeves was all my joy,
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E7 Am
and who but my Lady Greensleeves.
[Verse 2]
Am C G Em
I have been readie at your hand,
Am E
to grant what ever you would crave.
Am C G Em
I have both waged life and land,
Am E7 Am
your love and good will for to have.
[Verse 3]
Am C G Em
Thy gown was of the grassy green,
Am E
thy sleeves of satin hanging by,
Am C G Em
Which made thee be our harvest queen,
Am E7 Am
And yet thou wouldst not love me.
[Chorus]
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy,
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E7 Am
and who but my Lady Greensleeves.
[Verse 4]
Am C G Em
Well, I will pray to God on high,
Am E
That thou constancy mayst see,
Am C G Em
And that yet once before I die,
Am E7 Am
Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me.
[End Chorus]
