A--las, my lo-ve, you do me wrong,

-7  7   -6 -6  6  -6 -7  6    5 
To cast me off di--s-courteously.

Greensleeves was all my  jo------y

Greensleeves was my heart of  go-ld,

And who but my La-------dy 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.

REPEAT CHORUS

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.

REPEAT CHORUS

If you intend thus to disdain,
It does the more enrapture me,
And even so, I still remain
A lover in captivity.

REPEAT CHORUS

My men were clothed all in green,
And they did ever wait on thee;
All this was gallant to be seen,
And yet thou wouldst not love me.

REPEAT CHORUS

Thou couldst desire no earthly thing,
but still thou hadst it readily.
Thy music still to play and sing;
And yet thou wouldst not love me.

REPEAT CHORUS

Well, I will pray to God on high,
that thou my constancy mayst see,
And that yet once before I die,
Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me.

REPEAT CHORUS

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

REPEAT CHORUS
