Sweet [B] William arose [F#] on a May morning, he's dressed himself in blue.
We want you [C#] to tell [D#m] the love love [F#] that's been [D#] between [F#] Lady Margaret and you.
Well I know nothing Lady Margaret's love, and I know she don't love me.
[F#] Before [C#] tomorrow [D#m] morning I'll tell you to the clock, Lady Margaret the bride shall see.
Lady Margaret was [F#] sitting in her own parlor, with her black hair and yellow hair.
But who should [C#] she see but [D#m] Sweet William and his friend, the boys were riding there.
Her lips down she threw [F#] her ivory coat, back she threw her hair.
And you can [C#] suppose [D#m] I'd be very well assured Lady Margaret was her.

Sweet [F#] William he [F#] said, with trouble in the head, by the [C#] dreams he dreamed [D#m] last night.
[F#] Such dreams, such dreams cannot be true, I fear they're of no good.
I dream [C#] my chamber [D#m] is full of wild [F#] swine, and my bride's bed floating in blood.
The heat's cooled down his waiting bed, by one, by two, by three.

The first kiss kissed [F#] her right reach, and then he's kissed her chin.
But when he's [D#m] kissed her [F#] cold, from your lips on the walls of my room.
And Lady Margaret died like it might be today, sweet Willie B's died tomorrow.
