[Introduction]
C
[Verse-A 1]
Oh, I forbid you maidens all
That wear gold in your hair
To come or go by Carterhaugh
For young Tam Lin is there.
[Verse-A 2]
C F
If you go by Carterhaugh
You must leave him a ward:
C F
Either your rings or green mantle
Or else your maidenhead.
[Verse-A 3]
C F
She’s away o’er gravel green
And o’er the gravel brown;
C F
She’s away to Carterhaugh
To flower herself a gown.
[Verse-A 4]
She had not pulled a rosy rose,
A rose but barely one,
When by came this brisk young man,
Says, "Lady, let alone.
[Bridge-A 1]
How dare you pull my rose, Madam?
How dare you break my tree?
How dare you come to Carterhaugh
Without the leave of me?"
[Verse-A 5]
"Well may I pull the rose," she said,
"Well may I break the tree.
For Carterhaugh is my father’s,
I’ll ask no leave of thee."
[Chorus]
C F C G
Oh, in Carterhaugh, in Carterhaugh
C F C G C
Oh, in Carterhaugh, in Carterhaugh
[Verse-A 6]
He’s taken her by the milk-white hand
And there he’s laid her down,
And there he asked no leave of her
As she lay on the ground.
[Verse-A 7]
"Oh tell me, tell me," then she said,
"Oh tell me who art thee?"
"My name it is Tam Lin," he said,
"And this is my story:
[Bridge-A 2]
As it fell out upon a day,
A-hunting I did ride;
There came a wind out of the north
And woe it did betide.
[Verse-A 8]
And drowsy, drowsy as I was,
The sleep upon me fell;
The Queen of Fairies she was there,
And took me to herself.
[Chorus]
C F C G
Oh, in Carterhaugh, in Carterhaugh
C F C G C
Oh, in Carterhaugh, in Carterhaugh

[Bridge-A 3]
At the end of every seven years
They pay a tithe to Hell;
And I’m so fain and full of flesh,
I fear ’t will be myself.
[Verse-A 9]
Tonight it is good Halloween,
The fairy court will ride;
And if you would your true love win,
At Mile’s Cross, you must bide."
[Chorus*]

E
[Verse-B 1]
E
Gloomy was the night
And eerie was the way;
This lady in her green mantle
To Mile’s Cross she did go.
With the holy water in her hand
She cast the compass round;
At twelve o’clock the fairy court
Came riding o’er the bound.
[Verse-B 2]
E
First came by the black steed
And then came by the brown,
Then Tam Lin on a milk-white steed
With a gold star in his crown.
She’s pulled him down into her arms
And let the bridle fall;
The Queen of Fairies she cried out,
"Young Tam Lin is awa."
[Verse-B 3]
They’ve shaped him in her arms,
To an adder or a snake;
She’s held him fast and feared him not
To be her earthly mate.
They’ve shaped him in her arms again
To fire burning bold;
She’s held him fast and feared him not
Till he was iron cold.
[Verse-B 4]
They’ve shaped him in her arms
To a wood black dog so wild;
She’s held him fast and feared him not,
The father of her child.
They’ve shaped him in her arms at last
Into a naked man;
She’s wrapped him in the green mantle
And knew that she had him won.

Had I known, had I known, Tam Lin,

Long before, long before you came from home,
Had I known, I would have taken out your heart
And put in a heart of stone.

That a lady, a lady would steal thee,
Had I known, I would have taken out your eyes
And put in two from a tree.

That I would lose, that I would lose the day,
Had I known, I would have paid my tithe to hell
Before you’d been won away.
