GREENSLEEVES

Alas my love you do me great wrong. To cast me off discourteously And I have loved you so long Delighting in your company Chorus: Greensleeves was all my joy Greensleeves was my delight Greensleeves was my heart of gold And who but my lady greensleeves. I have been ready at hand To grant whatever you crave; I have both wagered life and land your love and goodwill to have. I bought kerchers to your head That were wrought fine and gallantly I kept thee both at board and bed which cost my purse favouredly. Chorus: Greensleeves,now farewell! Adieu! GOD I pray to prosper thee; For I am still thy lover true. Come once again and love me.
