Well met, well met my own true love
well met, well met cried he.
Cm A#m Cm
Come in, come in my own true love,
Cm A#m Cm
and have a seat with me,
Cm A#m
for it's been three quarters of a long, long year
Cm A#m Cm
since together we have been.
Cm
I can't come in and I can't sit down
I haven't but a moment's time.
Cm A#m Cm
And I could've married with the king's daughter there,
A#m Cm
so free she was with me.
A#m
But I forsook all the crowns and gold
Cm A#m Cm
and it's all for the love of thee.
Cm A#m Cm
If you would have married with the king's daughter there,
A#m Cm
I'm sure you are to blame.
A#m
And it's now I've married to the house carpenter
Cm A#m Cm
and I'm sure he's a fine young man.
Cm
Well will you forsake your house carpenter
and come away with me?
Cm A#m Cm
(So she picked up her tine wee babe
A#m Cm
and kisses gave it three,
A#m
saying stay right here my sweet, sweet dear
Cm A#m Cm
and keep your father company.
Cm A#m Cm
Well they hadn't been on ship but about 2 weeks,
A#m Cm
I'm sure it was not 3,
Cm...
Cm A#m Cm
Are you weeping for your house and land,
A#m Cm
or are you weeping for your store,
A#m
or are you weeping for the house carpenter
Cm A#m Cm
whose face you'll never see no more?
Cm A#m Cm
No I'm not weeping for my house and land,
A#m Cm
I'm not weeping for my store,
Cm
it's now I'm weeping for my soul, so dear,
whose purity I'll never see no more.
Cm A#m Cm
Well met, well met my own true love love,
A#m Cm
well met, well met cried he.
A#m Cm
I've just returned to the salt salt sea
and it's all for the love of thee.
