Key: D
Introduction:
D A D A
Fare thee well cold winter, and fare thee well cold frost.
D A D E A
Oh nothing I have gained, but my own true love have lost.
A D G Bm
So sing and I'll be merry, when occasion I do see-
Bm D A D A D
He's a false deluded young man, let him go, fare well he.
(chorus)
D A D A
All around my hat, I will wear the green willow,
D A D E A
And all around my hat, for a twelve-month and a day.
A D G Bm
And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearin' it,
D A D A D
It's all for my true love who's far, far, away
(same chords as previous verse)
