(G)All
a(D)round
my (G)hat
I will wear a green (D)willow
And (G)all
a(D)round
(G)my
hat for a twelve month (C)and
a (D)day
And if (G)anyone
should (C)ask
(G)me
the (C)reason
why I'm (D)wearing
it
It's (G)all
for my true love who's (D)far
far a(G)way
Fare thee well
cold winter and fare thee well cold frost
Nothing have I gained but my own true love I've lost
I'll sing and I'll be merry when occasion I do see
He's a false deluding young man, let him go farewell he
All around my hat
I will wear a green willow
And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day
And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
It's all for my true love who's far far away
The other night
he brought me a fine diamond ring
But he thought to have deprived me for a far better thing
But I being careful like lovers ought to be
He's a false deluding young man, let him go farewell he
All around my hat
I will wear a green willow
And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day
And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
It's all for my true love who's far far away
The quarter pound
of reasons and half a pound of sense
A small sprig of time and as much of prudence
You mix them all together and you will plainly see
He's a false deluding young man, let him go farewell he
All around my hat
I will wear a green willow
And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day
And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
It's all for my true love who's far far away
All around my hat I will wear a green willow
And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day
And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
It's all for my true love who's far far away.
