"King Henry" - Steeleye Span {AUDIO} Chords

_ Let never a man a-moving when that lack of thing is three,
A store of gold, an open heart, and full [Gm] of charity.
And this was seen [Bb] of King Henry, though he lay quite alone,
For he's [Eb] taken them to a haunted hall, seven miles [D] from the [G] town. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ He's chased the deer [F] now him before, [G] and the doe [F] down [D] by the den,
[G] Till the batter's buckled all the flock, King [C] Henry [G] is slain.
His huntsmen followed him [F] to the [D] hall to [G] make them [D] pearly cheer,
[G] When [F] loud the [Eb] wind was [D] heard to [G] sound, and an [F] earthquake [G] rocked the [D] floor.
[G] _ _ _ _
And darkness [F] covered all [G] the hall where [D] they sat at their [Gm] feet,
The grey dogs yowling left their food, and [F] crept [G] to Henry's feet.
And louder howled the [F] rising [D] wind, and [Gm] burst the [D] barstard door,
[G] And [F] in there [Eb] came a [D] grizzly ghost [F] stamping [G] on the [D] floor.
[G] Her hair did the root [F] tree of [Gm] the house, a middle year [D] could not span.
[G] Each frightened huntsman fled the hall and left the King alone.
Her teeth were like the [F] tether, her stakes her [Gm] nose like [D] love or mail,
[Gm] And nothing less she seemed to be than a fiend that comes from hell.

Some meat, some meat, you King Henry, some meat you give to me.
You'll kill your horse, you King Henry, and bring him here to me.
He's come and slain, his belly brown, his teeth are grey, his heart full sore,
For she's eaten up our skin and bone, and we're fucking well tied and dead.

You'll sew up your horses, hide and breed, [A] and drink to [G] me.
And he sewed up bloody iron, _ _ and she drank it up all in one _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ [F] bed, a bed now King Henry, [F] a bed you'll make [D] for me.
[G] Oh you must fold the heather green, [F] and make [G] it soft for me.
And fold as he [F] the heather [D] green, and make for her a bed.
And [F] take her nose, [Eb] ear, his [D] game mantle, [Gm] and all her beauty is [D] spread.
[G] _ _ _ Take off your clothes [F] now King Henry, [Gm] and lie [F] down by [D] my side.
[G] Now swear, now swear you King Henry, to [F] take me [G] for your bride.
I've got the bed, says [Fm] King [D] Henry, [Gm] whichever the [D] light good tide.
[Gm] That [F] ever a [Ebm] fiend that [D] comes from hell [Gm] should stretch down by [D] my side.

[D] _ [G] When the night was [F] gone, and the day was gone, [G] and the sun [F] shone through [D] the hall.
[G] The fairest lady that ever was seen, [F] lay between [G] him and the wall.
I'd met with many a [F] gentle knight, [D] that gave [D] me such a fill.
[F] But never before [D] with a courteous knight, that [F] gave [D] me all my will.
