Oh I so [D]
fair [F#m] and full of [Em] flesh and fair did [Bm] be myself.
_ _ [Am] _ _ [Em] _
But [D] tonight is Halloween [Em] _
and the [D] fairy folk [Em] wry.
Those that [D] would their true [G] love [Em] win had miles [D] crossed they must [Em] lie.
_ _ [A] _ _ [E] _
First let [D] past the [G] horse's [Em] black, and then [D] let past the [Em] brown.
Quickly [D] run to the [G] white steed and [D] pull the rider [E] down.
_ [A] _ _ [E] For [G] I'm the white steed nearest [D] to the [G] town.
For I was an earthly knight, they give [D] me that redound.
_ [Em] _ [F#m] _ [Em] Oh they will [D] turn me in [G] your [Em] arms to a [D] newt or a [Em] snake.
But hold [D] me tight and [G] fear not, [Em] I am [D] your _ baby's [Em] father.
_ _ _ And they will [D] turn me in [Em] your arms into [D] a lion [Em] bold.

arms into [D] a naked [Em] knight. _

_ _ _ [Em] _ [Bm] _ [D] the middle _ [G] of the night [Em] she [D] heard the bridal [Em] ring.
She [D] heeded what he did [G]
[Em] say and [D] young Tamlin did _ [Em] win.
_ _ _ Then up [D] spoke the [G] fairy queen, an angry [D] queen was [Em] she.
Woe [D] betide her [G] ill-thought face, how [D] death may she [Em] die.
