CmWell (x3101x@1)met, well met my own true love
well met, well met cried he.
I've just returned from the salt salt sea
and it's all for the love of thee.

Cm (x3101x@1)     A#m (x13321@1)   CmCome (x3101x@1)in, come in my own true love,
Cm (x3101x@1)     A#m (x13321@1)       Cmand (x3101x@1)have a seat with me,
    Cm (x3101x@1)                          A#m (x13321@1)     
for it's been three quarters of a long, long year
      Cm (x3101x@1)     A#m (x13321@1)   Cmsince (x3101x@1)together we have been.

CmI (x3101x@1)can't come in and I can't sit down
I haven't but a moment's time.
But I hear you're married to the house carpenter
so your love will never be mine.

Cm (x3101x@1)           A#m (x13321@1)            CmAnd (x3101x@1)I could've married with the king's daughter there,
            A#m (x13321@1)    Cmso (x3101x@1)free she was with me.
                      A#m (x13321@1)     
But I forsook all the crowns and gold
         Cm (x3101x@1)        A#m (x13321@1)   Cm (x3101x@1)  
and it's all for the love of thee.

Cm (x3101x@1)              A#m (x13321@1)            CmIf (x3101x@1)you would have married with the king's daughter there,
             A#m (x13321@1)  CmI'm (x3101x@1)sure you are to blame.
                                 A#mAnd (x13321@1)it's now I've married to the house carpenter
    Cm (x3101x@1)            A#m (x13321@1)      Cm (x3101x@1) 
and I'm sure he's a fine young man.

CmWell (x3101x@1)will you forsake your house carpenter
and come away with me?
I'll take you down to where the grass grows green,
down by the sweet dundee.

Cm (x3101x@1)           A#m (x13321@1)  Cm(So (x3101x@1)she picked up her tine wee babe
           A#m (x13321@1)   Cmand (x3101x@1)kisses gave it three,
                          A#m (x13321@1)         
saying stay right here my sweet, sweet dear
    Cm (x3101x@1)        A#m (x13321@1)Cmand (x3101x@1)keep your father company.

Cm (x3101x@1)                     A#m (x13321@1)    CmWell (x3101x@1)they hadn't been on ship but about 2 weeks,
            A#m (x13321@1)   Cm (x3101x@1)I'm sure it was not 3,
Cm...
when she espied his cloven foot
and began to weep most bitterly.)

Cm (x3101x@1)    A#m (x13321@1)            CmAre (x3101x@1)you weeping for your house and land,
           A#m (x13321@1)            Cmor (x3101x@1)are you weeping for your store,
                            A#m (x13321@1)       
or are you weeping for the house carpenter
      Cm (x3101x@1) A#m (x13321@1)               Cmwhose (x3101x@1)face you'll never see no more?

Cm (x3101x@1)       A#m (x13321@1)          CmNo (x3101x@1)I'm not weeping for my house and land,
        A#m (x13321@1)          CmI'm (x3101x@1)not weeping for my store,
Cmit's (x3101x@1)now I'm weeping for my soul, so dear,
whose purity I'll never see no more.
                         
(Well they hadn't been on ship for about 3 weeks,
I'm sure it was not 4,
when he stomped his foot and down she sank,
and sank to arise no more.)

Cm (x3101x@1)      A#m (x13321@1)       Cm (x3101x@1)Well met, well met my own true love love,
