And you would marry me
F G7 C Am
You're nothing but a false young knight
Dm C
From over the raging sea
[Verse 5]
C Dm C Dm
She saw right through this tall young knight
F G7 C
He'd tricked her false love in
F G7 C Am
She saw the wrong intentions

That the bold knight had within
[Verse 6]
C Dm C Dm
He thought her just a fair young lass
F G7 C
With not the strength to win

To view a stark lady

C Dm C Dm
So he turned his back to the billowy waves
F G7 C
And his face to the old oak tree
F G7 C Am
She threw her hands around his neck
Dm C
And tossed him into the sea
[Chorus]
C Dm C Dm
You promised we would ride the land
F G7 C
And you would marry me
F G7 C Am
You're nothing but a false young knight
Dm C
From over the raging sea

Oh, give me your hand, my pretty maid,
Dm C
My bride forever you'll be.
[Verse 11]
C Dm C Dm
Lie there, lie there, you dirty dog

Lie there instead of me

You're none too fine nor costly

She rode upon the milk white steed
F G7 C
And led the dappled grey
F G7 C Am
Returning to the castle
Dm C
In the morning the next day
[Verse 13]
C Dm C Dm
Oh father, he had fase intentions
F G7 C
After courting me
F G7 C Am
Oh he's nothing but a false young knight
Dm C
From over the raging sea
[Chorus]
C Dm C Dm
He promised we would ride the land
F G7 C
And he would marry me
F G7 C Am
He's nothing but a false young knight
Dm C
From over the raging sea
