Lyke Wake Dirge Chords

(ver. 1)
The Young Tradition
Am              D       Am
This ae nighte, this ae nighte
Em             B
Any nighte and alle
C        Bm        C      B
Fire and fleet and candle-lighte
    Am        C         A
And Christe receive thy saule

   C         Bm    C        B
If thou from here away dost pass
Em             B
Any nighte and alle
   C      Bm        C         B
To Whinny-muir thou com'st at last
    Am        C         A
And Christe receive thy saule

   C           Bm   C        B
If thou gavest ever hosen or shoon
Em             B
Any nighte and alle
     C      Bm       C        B
Then sit ye down and put them on
    Am        C         A
And Christe receive thy saule

       C        Bm         C            B
But if hosen or shoon thou ne'er gav'st nane
Em             B
Any nighte and alle
    C           Bm            C        B
The whinny will prick thee to thy bare bane
    Am        C         A
And Christe receive thy saule

   C         Bm     C        B
If thou from there away dost pass
Em             B
Any nighte and alle
   C         Bm        C         B
To Purgatory fire thou com'st at last
    Am        C         A
And Christe receive thy saule

   C           Bm   C       B
If thou gav'st ever meat or drink
Em             B
Any nighte and alle
    C         Bm    C         B
The fire will never make thee shrink
    Am        C         A
And Christe receive thy saule

       C       Bm         C      B
But if meat or drink thou gav'st nane
Em             B
Any nighte and alle
    C         Bm           C        B
The fire will burn thee to thy bare bane
    Am        C         A
And Christe receive thy saule
