[C#]
There [G#m] was a fair [F#] maid lived in the [C#] know
Oh [G#] the Rose and the Lindsay [C#] O
She fell in love [G#] with her father [F#] sir
[E] Down by the [C#] greenwood side O
He
[G#] courted her [F#]
for a year [C#] and a day
[G#] Oh the Rose and the [C#] Lindsay O
Till he the young [G#]
man did [F#] betray
[E] Down by the greenwood [C#] side O
She [G#] leaned her back [F#]
[C#] against the floor
Oh [G#] the Rose and the [C#] Lindsay O
And there she had [G#]
two little [F#] babes born
[E] Down by the [C#] greenwood side O
She
[G#] took her pen [F#]
knife clean [C#] and sharp
Oh [G#] the Rose and the [C#] Lindsay O
And pierced those two [G#] babes to [F#] the heart
[E]
Down by the [C#] greenwood side O
As [G#] she was
[F#] walking her [C#] father's hall
[G#] Oh the Rose [C#] and the Lindsay O
She spied two boys [G#] a-playing [F#] ball
[E] Down by the [C#] greenwood side O
She [G#] said, oh
[F#] babes, if [C#] thou were mine
[G#] Oh the Rose and the Lindsay [C#] O
I'd dress you [G#] up in [F#] silk so fine
[E] Down by the [C#] greenwood side O
Ah
[G#] mother dear,
[F#] when [C#] we were thine
Oh [G#] the Rose and the [C#] Lindsay O
You did not treat [G#] us [F#] then so fine
[E]
Down by [C#] the greenwood side O
She [G#] said, oh
[F#] babes, tis you [C#] can tell
[G#] Oh the Rose and the [C#] Lindsay O
What kind of death
[G#] I'll have to [F#] die
[E] Down by the [C#] greenwood side O
Seven
[G#]
[F#] years of fish [C#] in the flood
Oh [G#] the Rose and the Lindsay [C#] O
Seven years [G#] a bird [F#] in the wood
[D#m] [F#]
[E] Down by [C#] the greenwood side O
Seven
[G#] [F#] years a tongue in the [C#] morning bed
[G#] Oh the Rose and the Lindsay [C#] O
Seven years [G#] in the flames [F#] of hell
[E] Down [G#m] by [C#] the greenwood side O
[G#] Welcome, [F#] welcome, fish in [C#] the flood
Oh [G#]
the Rose and the [C#] Lindsay O
Welcome, welcome, [G#] bird [F#] in the wood
[E] Down by the [C#] greenwood side O
Welcome,
[G#] tongue [F#] in the [C#] morning bed
Oh [G#] the Rose and the Lindsay [C#] O
God save me [G#] from the [F#] flames in hell
[E] Down [G#m] by the [C#] greenwood side O
