        Am            G
Twas an English ladye bright
    Am                          G
The sun shines fair on Carlisle wall
    Am                         G
And she would marry a Scottish knight
    Am                 Em      Am    Em
For love will still be lord of all

[Verse]
      Am                     G
Blithely they saw the rising sun
     Am               Em
When he shone fair on Carlisle wall
    Am                G
But they were sad ere day was done
       F                  G       Am
Though love was still the lord of all

[Verse]
                               G
Her sire gave brooch and jewel fine
          F                  G
Where the sun shines fair on Carlisle wall
    Am                          G
Her brother gave but a flask of wine
    F                 G       Am
For ire that love was lord of all

[Verse]
                                   Em
For she had lands, both meadow and lea
          F                  G
Where the sun shines fair on Carlisle wall
    Am                      G

A Scottish knight the lord of all

The sun shines fair on Carlisle wall
     Am                           G
When dead in her true love's arms she fell
    F                  G       Am
For love was still the lord of all

Where the sun shines fair on Carlisle wall
   Am                         Em
So perish all would true love part
     Am                Em      Am    G
That love may still be lord of all

[Verse]
    Am                       Em
And then he took the cross divine
          F                  G
Where the sun shines fair on Carlisle wall
    F                         G
And died for her sake in Palestine
   Am       F         G       Am
So love was still the lord of all

The sun shines fair on Carlisle wall
     F                             G
Pray for their souls, who died for love
    Am                  Em      Am
For love shall still be lord of all
