The Maiden Hind Chords

(ver. 1)
Gordon Bok
[Intro]
F#7   A

[Verse]
    Bm            F#
The mother to her son did say
G           F#m
In the greenwood
    E7               A
The little hind thou shalt not slay
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
        Bm                E
You may slay the hart and shoot the doe
D           C#m
In the greenwood
        Bm               A
But the little hind thou must let go
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
    Bm            F#
Sir Peter rode in greenwood bound
G           F#m
In the greenwood
        E7                   A
And the little hind played before his hound
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
    Bm                      E
The little hind sported its feet before
D           C#m
In the greenwood
       Bm                      A
And he thought on his mother's words no more
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
   Bm                        F#
He spanned his crossbow with hand and knee
G           F#m
In the greenwood
       E7              A
And he shot the hind beside a tree
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
    Bm                  E
His gloves from off his hands he drew
D           C#m
In the greenwood
   Bm                A
To flay the hind without ado
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
    Bm                 F#
Her neck he flayed and shining there
G           F#m
In the greenwood
E7               A
Was his sister's golden hair
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
Bm                  E
He has found in her bosom cold
D           C#m
In the greenwood
    Bm              A
His little sister's rings of gold
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
Bm               F#
In her side with sore affright
G           F#m
In the greenwood
E7               A
He has found her hands so white
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
    Bm                   E
His hunting-knife to the ground he threw
D           C#m
In the greenwood
    Bm              A
Now has my mother's tale come true!
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
Bm                F#
Cold on the river falleth the rime
G           F#m
In the greenwood
        E7                       A
There's luck for the lad who can take it in time
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold

[Verse]
Bm                   E
Far the crane flieth up in the sky
D           C#m
In the greenwood
Bm                     A
Lucky the lad who from trouble can fly!
     D                 A
That bears the band of gold
