_ _ _ Pale was the wound at night That bore the [F#] roving shield
[C#] And loud and cruel the [A#m] raven's cries [F#] As he feasted on [G#] the field
_ _ [C#] Green balls and [F#] heather buns [C#] Will never staunch [F#] the flood
[C#] There's none but the witch or the [A#m] Westmoreland Can [F#] save thy dear [C#] life's blood
_ Turn and turn his _ stallion's head Till his red mane flies [F#] in the wind
[C#] And the right of the moon [A#m] goes by [F#] And the bright star falls [G#]
behind
And [C#] clear was the [F#] pale moon [C#] When shadow passed [F#] him by
[C#] And below the hill were the [A#m] brightest [F#] stars When he heard the [G#] owlet _ cry

Saying, why do you ride this way?
And wherefore came [F#] you here?
[G#] I [C#] seek the witch or the [A#m] Westmoreland Who [C#] dwells by the winding [G#] mire
And [C#] it's weary by the owl's [F#]
water _ [C#] And misty the break [F#]-fern way
[C#] Till through the cleft of the kerk [A#m]-stone [F#] Passed the [C#] winding mortal [G#] lay
[C#] And he said, [Fm] lie down, ye [F#] brindled hulk _ [C#] And rest ye, my good [F#] grey hulk
And [C#] thee, my steed, may [A#m] graze thy fell [F#] For a mostest [G#] mountain walk
But [C#] come when ye hear [F#]
my call [C#] And answer swift [F#] the call
For I [C#] fear when the sun will [A#m] rise this morn [F#] You'll serve me [G#] best of _ _ all

And [A#m] it's down to the [F#] water's brim _ [A#m] He's borne the [F#] Roman shield
[Fm] And the [C#] golden god he [G#] has cast in [F#] To see what the lake [G#] might yield
[A#m] And where rose she [F#] from the lake _ [A#m] And fast and fleet when [F#] she
_ [Fm] Unhath [F#] the form of [G#] a maiden [A#m] fair [F#] With a [D#] jet black [G#] mass body
_ [C#] Horn and cloud, long and [F#] shrilly blue [C#] Till he see'd was [F#] by his side
[C#] High overhead the [A#m] grey hulk flew [F#] And swiftly [A#] he did [Fm] ride
Singing [C#] _ chorus around the [F#] brindled hulk _ [C#] And fetch me the [F#] jet black mass
And stoop [C#] and strike me, good grey [A#m] hulk [F#] And bring me the [G#] maiden _ _ fair
_ _ _ [A#m] _ _
[C#] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A#m] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ And she [C#] said, pray sheave thy silvery soul _ Lay down thy Roman [F#] shield
For [C#] I see by the briny blood that flows [F#] You wounded in [G#] the field
[A#m] She's stood in a gown of [F#] velvet blue Bound [A#m] round with a silver [F#] _ chain
And [C#] she's kissed his pale lips [A#m] once and twice [D#] And three times round [G#] again
[C#] And she's bound his wounds with a [F#] golden cord [A#m] Fall fast in her [F#] empty lay
[C#] And he has [G#] risen [A#m] holding south [F#] With the sun [C#] high in the [G#] day
And she [C#] said, ride with you _ [F#] brindled hulk _ [C#] And you good grey hulk [F#] in hand
[C#] For there's none can harm the [A#m] knight who's lain [F#] With the witch or the [G#] westmoreland
