[Bb] What's the blood on the point of your sword?

[Eb] Promise tell me true.
[Bb] That's the blood of my great mare, Oh lady mother, my lady mother,
That's the blood of my great mare, She [Eb] would not rule by me.
[Bb] Your great mare's blood was never so red, Oh son David, my son David,
Your great mare's blood was never so red, [Eb] Promise tell me true.
[Gm] That's the blood of my hawking [F] hound, Oh lady mother, my lady [Eb] mother,

[Bb] Your hawking hound's blood was never so clear, Oh son David, my son David,
Your hawking hound's blood was never so clear, [Eb] Promise tell me true.
[Gm] That's the blood of my brother [F] John, Oh lady mother, my lady [Eb] mother,

The sun and the moon meet in yonder glen, And I will never be.
