[Verse 1]
D Em Bm
Down in the greenwood, under the lime tree
C G D
We spent lover's hours
G D Em Bm
And if you pass by you'll know we lay there
C G D
Look how we crushed all the flowers
Bm Am G
The insects buzzed and the nightingales sang
D G D
High above the forest on a soft south wind
Bm Am G
Point and laugh if you come walking past
C D G
I don't care at all how red her mouth is.
[Verse 2]
D Em Bm
Down in the greenwood, under the lime tree
C G D
Crushing the grass and the sweet herbs
G D Em Bm
There in the roses I laid my head down
C G D
See where the petals are disturbed
Bm Am G
And if you accuse her of lying there with me
D G D
This I know for sure she will never be ashamed:
Bm Am G
She was the one, the one and only woman
C D G
I ever came to wish would whisper my name
[Verse 3]
D Em Bm
Down in the greenwood, under the lime tree
C G D
The lily embraces the ivy
G D Em Bm
And if you pass by, stop look and marvel
C G D
At how she has grown to survive him
Bm Am G
For she stayed here with me for just a year
Bm G
And bound her hair with gold
D G D
Oh my little white dove...
Bm Am G
One fine day she turned into a hawk
C D G
And flew off to the sun to find a new love
