G         D            C             G
 Fare you well; on the morrow I must leave,
        C           D               G    C, G  C
And I'm bound for a far and distant land.
G             D                C                G
 A tale would tell, of my poor heart and how it grieves,
       C                 D            G   C, G  C
So for you my love; this sorrowful Pa-van.

G      D/F#            Em              C        C/B             Am
 I was born in Lincoln county, and the son of a country wife am I.
       G       D/F#            Em          D
Out of all the flowers growing wild in yon forest,
           C               D                  G
You're the fairest rose on which I've laid an eye.

 Love me hard; with the dawn I'll be gone,
      C             D              G    C, G  C
And I don't know if I'll be back a-gain.
G          D              C               G
 God as my guard; I'm the champion of the wronged,
       C            D              G   C, G  C
Off to Holy Wars to fight the Sara-cen.

Out of all the flowers growing wild in yon forest,

You're the fairest rose on which I've laid an eye.

Bridge 1:
G                            C             G
 While you're away does your spouse turn a whore?
     C             G                D
Or a chastity belt maiden while cru-sader's at war?
G                               C               G
 I'm tired of my chain mail, my armour makes me sore,
       C   C/B      D    G
And it all seems so fu...tile.
Interlude:
G  C (x4)
Verse 3:
G         D            C             G
 Weep you will, but my love I cannot stay,
         C              D               G    C, G  C
Dry your eyes and we'll share a parting kiss.
G        D       C              G
 Wait un-til the advent of that day,
         C                D          G    C, G  C
When I'm home and gone is sadness as this.

Out of all the flowers growing wild in yon forest,
           C               D                  G
You're the fairest rose on which I've laid an eye.
