Titel: Greensleeves
(England - 16. Jahrhundert)
Am C G Em
Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
Am E
To cast me off discourteously.
Am C G Em
For I have loved you well and long,
Am E Am
Delighting in your company.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E Am
And who but my lady, greensleeves.
Am C G Em
Alas, my love, that you should own
Am E
A heart of wanton vanity,
Am C G Em
So must I meditate alone
Am E Am
Upon your insincerity.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E Am
And who but my lady, greensleeves.
Am C G Em
Your vows you've broken, like my heart,
Am E
Oh, why did you so enrapture me?
Am C G Em
Now I remain in a world apart
Am E Am
But my heart remains in captivity.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E Am
And who but my lady, greensleeves.
Am C G Em
If you intend thus to disdain,
Am E
It does the more enrapture me,
Am C G Em
And even so, I still remain
Am E Am
A lover in captivity.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E Am
And who but my lady, greensleeves.
Am C G Em
I've been ready at your hand,
Am E
To grant whatever you would crave;
Am C G Em
I have both wagered life and land,
Am E Am
Your love and good-will for to have.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E Am
And who but my lady, greensleeves.
Am C G Em
Thou couldst desire no earthly thing,
Am E
But still thou hadst it readily.
Am C G Em
Thy music still to play and sing;
Am E Am
And yet thou wouldst not love me.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E Am
And who but my lady, greensleeves.
Am C G Em
I bought thee kerchiefs for thy head,
Am E
That were wrought fine and gallantly;
Am C G Em
I kept thee at both board and bed,
Am E Am
Which cost my purse wellfavoredly.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E Am
And who but my lady, greensleeves.
Am C G Em
I bought thee petticoats of the best,
Am E
The cloth so fine as it might be;
Am C G Em
I gave thee jewels for thy chest,
Am E Am
And all this cost I spent on thee.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E Am
And who but my lady, greensleeves.
Am C G Em
Thy smock of silk, both fair and white,
Am E
With gold embroidered gorgeously;
Am C G Em
Thy petticoat of sendal right,
Am E Am
And these I bought thee gladly.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E Am
And who but my lady, greensleeves.
Am C G Em
My men were clothed all in green,
Am E
And they did ever wait on thee;
Am C G Em
All this was gallant to be seen,
Am E Am
And yet thou wouldst not love me.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
Am E Am
And who but my lady, greensleeves.
Am C G Em
They set thee up, they took thee down,
Am E
They served thee with humility;
Am C G Em
Thy foot might not once touch the ground,
Am E Am
And yet thou wouldst not love me.
C G Em
Greensleeves was all my joy
Am E
Greensleeves was my delight,
C G Em

'Tis I will pray to God on high,
Am E
That thou my constancy mayst see,
Am C G Em
And that yet once before I die,
Am E Am
Thou wilt vouch safe to love me.

To God I pray to prosper thee,
Am C G Em
For I am still thy lover true,
Am E Am
Come once again and love me.
