Oh, there were twelve witches bold
         C     G      Am    Em
And they lived in the North
          Am
And their equals were not seen
       C    G      C  E
On the face of the Earth

[Verse]
    Am
The first witch, with her hand
    C  G        Am   Em
The storm could hush
        Am
And the second witch could stop
        C  G     C
All the torrents rush

[Verse]
        Am           F       
And the third witch, she could 
  Am
strike
 F       Am F   E
Upon the golden lyre
        Am
And she charmed both young and old
         C   G   C E
Into the dancing fire

[Chorus]
Am    C         G     C G
Rowan tree, red thread
Am               E      Am
Hold the witches all in dread
Am    C         G     C G
Rowan tree, red thread
Am               E      Am
Hold the witches all in dread

[Verse]
    Am
The fourth witch, she could dive

       C   G    Am   Em
In the sea as a fish
        Am
And the fifth witch, she never 
wanted
    C    G    C    E
Any meat on a dish

[Verse]
    Am
And now the next witch go
          C     G     Am  Em
Under the earth could she
        Am
And the seventh witch could dance
         C   G   C
Upon the rolling sea

[Verse]
        Am           F      Am
And the eighth witch on her horn
F         Am   F E
She would blow a blast
    Am
And everyone who heard
      C           G      C  E
Would shudder and stand aghast

[Chorus]
Am    C         G     C G
Rowan tree, red thread
Am               E      Am
Hold the witches all in dread
Am    C         G     C G
Rowan tree, red thread
Am               E      Am
Hold the witches all in dread

[Verse]
        Am
Oh, the ninth witch, she tamed all
            C    G    Am    Em
That in the greenwood crept
        Am
And the tenth witch, not a nap
        C G  C  E
She had ever slept

[Verse]
    Am
The eleventh witch, the grisly
C   G    Am    Em
Lindworm bound
        Am
And the twelfth witch, she could all
       C G  C
Things understand

[Verse]
    Am           F       Am
And these twelve witches bold
F        Am    F      E
They all lived in the North
          Am
And their equals were not seen
       C    G      C  E
On the face of the Earth

[Chorus]
Am    C         G     C G
Rowan tree, red thread
Am               E      Am
Hold the witches all in dread
Am    C         G     C G
Rowan tree, red thread
Am               E      Am
Hold the witches all in dread

[Chorus]
Am    C         G     C G
Rowan tree, red thread
Am               E      Am
Hold the witches all in dread
Am    C         G     C G
Rowan tree, red thread
Am               E      Am
Hold the witches all in dread

[Chorus]
Am    C         G     C G
Rowan tree, red thread
Am               E      Am
Hold the witches all in dread
Am    C         G     C G
Rowan tree, red thread
Am               E      Am
Hold the witches all in dread
