[Verse]
  F                  Em
A knight he rode his lonely way
Dm                 Bb      Am
Thinking about his wedding day
   G                 G/B
As he rode through a forest near
    C                   Bb    C
The elf king's daughter did appear

[Verse]
F                        Em
Out she stepped from the elfin band
Dm               Bb      Am
Smiling she held out her hand
 G                   G/B
"Welcome Sir Knight, why such speed?
C                 Bb       C
Come with me, the dance to lead"

[Chorus]
F
Dance, dance, follow me
                    Bb        F
Round and round the greenwood tree
F
Dance, dance, while you may
                 Bb    F
Tomorrow is your dying day
C     Am   C   Bb    Am   G
Dance with me, dance with me

Spurs of gold I'll give to thee"

Tomorrow is my wedding day"

"Please Sir Knight, come dance with me
  Dm                 Bb      Am
A shirt of silk I'll give to thee
  G                G/B
A shirt of silk so white and fine
   C                          Bb         C
My mother has bleached in the moonbeams' shine"

[Chorus]

A plague of death shall follow thee"
  G                     G/B
Between his shoulders a blow she dealt
C                Bb    C
Such a blow he'd never felt
