Chorus

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Are you goin' to

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] Scarborough

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Fair?

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] Parsley,

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] sage, rose-

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] ma-

[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] ry, and

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] thyme

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Remember

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] me to one who lives

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] there

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] She once

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] was a true love of

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] mine

Verse 2

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Tell her to make me a

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] cambric

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] shirt (On the side of a hill in the deep forest green)

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] Parsley,

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] sage, rose-

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] ma-

[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] ry, and

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] thyme (Tracing a sparrow on snow-crested ground)

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Without no

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] seams nor needle-

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] work (Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain)

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Then she'll

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] be a true love of

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] mine (Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)

Verse 3

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Tell her to find me an

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] acre

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] land (On the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves)

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] Parsley,

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] sage, rose-

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] ma-

[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] ry, and

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] thyme (Washes the grave with silvery tears)

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Between the salt

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] water and the sea

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] strands (A soldier cleans and polishes a gun)

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Then she'll

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] be a true love of

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] mine

Verse 4

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Tell her to reap it in a

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] sickle

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] leather (War bellows, blazing in scarlet battalions)

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] Parsley,

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] sage, rose-

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] ma-

[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] ry, and

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] thyme (Generals order their soldiers to kill)

And

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] gather it

[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Third] all in a bunch of

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] heather (And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten)

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Then she'll

[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] be a true love of

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] mine
