Has trysted me one day up to her bower

Saying if you will be my lover so true

So many good things I would give to you

And thrice she blew on a grass-green horn

She swore by the moon and the stars of above

That she'd make me rue the day I was born

The out she has taken a silver wand

She's turned her three times round and round

She muttered such words till my strength it did fail
Am E E7 Am
And she's turned me into an ugly worm
