Am     C         G     Em
Alas my love, you do me wrong,
    F              E
to cast me off discourteously,
    Am      C     G      Em
for I have loved you so long,
   F          E        Am
delighting in your company.

Chorus:
 C                G
Greensleeves was all my joy,
 F               E
Greensleeves was my delight,
 C                   G       Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
    F         E          Am
and who but my Lady Greensleeves.

Am     C         G     Em
If you intend thus to disdain,
    F              E
It does the more enrapture me,
Am      C     G      Em
And even so, I still remain
F       E     Am
A lover in captivity.

Chorus:
 C                G
Greensleeves was all my joy,
 F               E
Greensleeves was my delight,
 C                   G       Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
    F         E          Am
and who but my Lady Greensleeves.

Am     C         G     Em
Alas, my love, that you should own
    F              E
A heart of wanton vanity,
Am      C     G      Em
So must I meditate alone
F         E          Am
Upon your insincerity.

Chorus:
 C                G
Greensleeves was all my joy,
 F               E
Greensleeves was my delight,
 C                   G       Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
    F         E          Am
and who but my Lady Greensleeves.

    Am            C  G         Em
Ah, Greensleeves, no farewell, adieu,
    F              E
To God I pray to prosper thee,
Am      C      G         Em
For I am still thy lover true,
F         E          Am
Come once again and love me.

Chorus:
 C                G
Greensleeves was all my joy,
 F               E
Greensleeves was my delight,
 C                   G       Em
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
    F         E          Am
and who but my Lady Greensleeves.
