and smiled G A Em Bm She said i think my lady's loved too long A Em G Bm And now she goes with child, my dears A Bm Oh and now she goes with child Em G D Em Up then spoke the second serving girl G D A Oh ever and alas says she G A Em Bm But i think i know a herb in the merry green wood A Em G Bm That'll twine thy baby from thee A Bm It'll rip off thy babe from thee Em G D Em So lady margaret she got herself a comb G D A She made haste to comb her hair G Em Bm And then she's away to the merry green woods A Em G Bm As fast as she can tear, my boys A Bm As fast as she can tear Em G D Em And she hadn't pulled in the merry green woods G D A A herb that barely won G Em Bm When by her stands the young tamlin A Em G Bm He says margaret leave it alone A Bm Oh margaret leave it alone Em G D Em Why do you pull that bitter little herb G D A That herb that grows so grey G Em Bm A Em G Bm For to destroy that fine young baby that we got in our play, my dear A Bm Oh that we got in our play Em G D Em
