[Intro] N.C. All around my hat, I will wear the green willow, And all around my hat, for a twelve-month and a day. And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearin' it,
                                                D
It's all for my true love who's far, far, away
[Verse 1]
D         A         D                               A
Fare thee well cold winter, and fare thee well cold frost.

   D       A      D                       E         A
Oh nothing have I gained, but my own true love have lost.

  A                D            G       Bm
I sing and I'll be merry, when occasion I do see -

       D        A     D                      A         D
He's a false deluded  young man, let him go, fare well he.
[Verse 2]
    D     A        D                         A
The other night he brought me a fine diamond ring:

       D          A      D                  E      A
But he thought to have deprived me of a far better thing.

    A       D              G     Bm
But I being careful, like lovers ought to be,

       D        A     D                      A         D
He's a false deluded  young man, let him go fare well he.
[Chorus]
       A      D                          A
All around my hat, I will wear the green willow,

     D    A       D                       E     A
And all around my hat, for a twelve-month and a day.

       A             D           G             Bm          N.C.
And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearin' it,

A    D    A     D                    A      D
It's all for my true love who's far, far, away.

       D       A        D                            A
It's a quarter pound of reason, and a half pound of sense,

     D    A       D                 E     A
A small sprig of thyme, and as much of prudence,

    A              D           G            Bm
You mix then all together and you will plainly see:

     D    A     D                            A         D
He's a false deluded  young man, let him go, fare well he.
