Verse 1:

G         D
 Fare you well,
       C             G
On the morrow I must leave,
        C
And I'm bound,
      D               G     C, G  C
For a far and distant land.
G             D
 A tale would tell,
           C
Of my poor heart,
           G
And how it grieves,
       C
So for you my love,
     D            G   C, G  C
This sorrowful Pa-van.

Chorus 1:

G      D/F#            Em
 I was born in Lincoln county,
        C        C/B             Am
And the son of a country wife am I.
       G       D/F#
Out of all the flowers,
        Em          D
Growing wild in yon forest,
           C
You're the fairest rose,
   D                  G
On which I've laid an eye.

 Love me hard,

With the dawn I'll be gone,
      C
And I don't know,
   D              G    C, G  C
If I'll be back a-gain.
G          D
 God as my guard,
        C               G
I'm the champion of the wronged,
       C
Off to holy wars,
   D              G   C, G  C
To fight the Sara-cen

Out of all the flowers,
        Em          D
Growing wild in yon forest,

You're the fairest rose,

On which I've laid an eye.

Bridge 1: 

G
 While you're away,
          C             G
Does your spouse turn a whore?
     C             G
Or a chastity belt maiden,
          D
While cru-sader's at war?
G
 I'm tired of my chain mail,
   C               G
My armour makes me sore,
       C   C/B      D    G
And it all seems so fu...tile.

Interlude:

G  C (x4)

Verse 3:

G         D
 Weep you will,
       C             G
But my love I cannot stay,
         C              D
Dry your eyes and we'll share,
          G     C, G  C
A parting kiss.
G        D
 Wait un-til,
    C              G
The advent of that day,
         C
When I'm home,
            D          G     C, G  C
And gone is sadness as this.

Chorus 3:

 I was born in Lincoln county,
        C        C/B             Am
And the son of a country wife am I.
       G       D/F#
Out of all the flowers,
        Em          D
Growing wild in yon forest,
           C
You're the fairest rose,
   D                  G
On which I've laid an eye.
