[N]
[Bbm]
There was a lady in the north
I [Gb]
[Fm] knowed to see [Bbm] her morrow

gentlemen
And [Bbm] a
[Ab] ploughboy, [Gb]
Freyjau
[Fm] [Bbm]
[Eb] [Bbm]
[Fm] [Bbm]
These nine [Eb] sat drinking [Bbm] at the wine
[Gb]
Sat [Fm] drinking wine [Bbm] in Jarl
[Eb]
[Bbm] And [Db] they made a vow
[Ab] amongst themselves
[Bbm] For to fight for her [Gb] on Jarl
[Fm]
[Bbm] [Eb]
[Bbm] [Eb]
[Bbm]
As he walked down the high, [Bb] high hill
[Gb] [F] Down by the house [Bb] of Jarl
[Eb]
[Bbm]
[Db] And there his five, nine [Ab] armoured men
[Bb] Come to fight for him [Gb] on Jarl
[Fm]
[Bbm] There's
[Eb]
[Bbm]
[Eb] [Bb] nine of [Eb] you, there's one [Bb] of me
[Bbm] [Gb] That's [Fm]
not an [Bbm] equal morrow
[Db] For the fight is all [Ab] one by one
[Bbm] For the last that I
[Ab] love [Gb] on Jarl
[Fm]
And [Bbm]
[Fm] [Bbm]
[Fm] [Bbm]
[Fm] [Bbm] I he fought and I knew
And [Gb] [Fm] I [Bbm] most fairly owe
[Fm] [Bbm]
[Eb] [Db] Till a brother Jarl came [Ab] in from the mine
[Bbm] And murdered him [Gb] most foully
[Fm]
Oh [Bbm]
[Eb] [Bbm] [Fm]
[Bbm]
father [Eb] dear, I dreamed [Bbm] a dream
I [Gb] [Fm]
doubt it will [Bbm] bring sorrow
[Db] I [Bbm]
[Db] dreamed I pulled [Ab] a heather cream
On [Bbm] the dowry
[Eb] dens [Gb] of Jarl
[Fm] As [Bbm]
[Eb] [Bbm]
[Eb] [Bbm]
[Eb] [Bb] he walked down the high, [Bbm] high hill
[Gb] Down
[F] by [Bbm] the house of Jarl
[Eb] [Bbm]
[Db] And there she spied [Ab] her lover Jau
[Bbm] Lying pale and dead [Gb] on Jarl
[Fm] Her [Bbm]
[Bb]
[Eb] [Bbm]
[Ab] [Bbm] hair it was three quarters long
[Gb] The
[Fm] colour was [Bbm] yellow
[Fm] [Bbm]
She [Db] dropped it round his [Ab] little soul's paw
[Bbm] And for him all [Gb] three are [Fm]
own
[Bbm]
[Fm] [Bbm]
[Fm] [Bbm]
[Eb] [Bb] Oh father [Eb] dear, you [Bbm] said the sons
[Gb] In their [F]
wedd them all [Bbm] tomorrow
[Fm] But [Bbm]
[Db] the fairest bloom [Ab] among them all
Was the [Bb] light that they [Ab] slew on [Gb] Jarl
[Bbm]
[Fm] [Bbm]
[Eb] [Bb] [Bbm]
[Ab] [Bbm] [Eb]
[Bbm]
[Db] [Bbm]
