Steeleye Span – The Unquiet Grave (Guitar)

N.C. Dm        F         G       C
Cold blows the wind o'er my true love

    G             Dm       C     G
And cold blow the drops of rain

  Am    F Bb      C        G
I never had.. but one true love

       Dm        G/B     Fm  C  Fm  C
In the Greenwood he lies slain

     Dm    F        G       C
I'll do as much for my true love

   G   Dm    C    G
As any lover may

     Am      F Bb     C      G
I'll sit and weep all on his grave

  Dm           G/B   Fm  C  Fm  C
A twelve-month and a day..

     Dm            F     G        C
When twelve months and a day were done

  G       Dm     C      G
A voice began to speak

     Am    F Bb     C           G
“Who is it sits and weeps on my grave

    Dm       G/B    Fm  C
And will not let me sleep?”

N.C. Dm        F       G          C
One  kiss, one kiss of your sweet lips

    G       Dm    C      G
One kiss is all I crave

  Am     F Bb     C              G
Unless I have one kiss from your lips

   Dm      G/B     Fm  C  Fm  C
No comfort shall I have..

    Dm       F       G          C
“My lips are cold as clay, sweetheart

   G         Dm     C       G
My breath is earthy strong

    Am          F Bb      C       G
And had you one kiss from my cold lips

     Dm         G/B    Fm  C
Your time would not be long..”

N.C. Dm       F            G        C
Go   home, go home to your father’s house

    G         Dm         C     G
Sit with your friends at ease

    Am        F Bb      C     G
For fierce is love that longs for

    Dm       G/B     Fm  C
And leave my soul in peace
