Forum _ Seisi�n's corner _ Chords for The king and the Fair Maid?

Posted by: gwyndolyn Sep 7 2009, 03:09 AM

Hello I was wondering if anyone knew the chords for The King and the Fair maid?? I love that song, but I can't find the chords for it anywhere. I play guitar, too. for recognition, the song lyrics go like this:

It was ona beautiful morning in May
Fa la la...
A lady was walking a lonesome way
Fa la la...

The king and his soldiers came riding along
Fa la la...
They'd been away from home so long
Fa la la...

She was young and fair
Fa la la...
The brids were singing in the air
Fa la la...

They suddenly stopped when they spied the maid,
fa la la...
Why are you walking alone so late?
fa la la...
I'm walking from my grandmother's home,
fa la la...
He said this is a dangerous place to roam.

She was young and fair,
Fa lala...
The Birds were singing in the air
Fa lala ....

Come with me to my castle grand
fa la la...
He smield at her and he kissed her hand
Fa lal la...
There's one condition before I agree
Fa la la...
There's something between your legs I'd like to see
Fa la la...
Chorus

The king he blushed and dismounted his horse
Fa la la...
He wanted to take the lady be force
Fa la la...
She jumped upon his horse so quick
Fa la la...
He soon realized her insidious trick
Fa la la...

Chorus

Farewell my king, you've been genrous and fine,
Fa la la...
What's been between your legs is now between mine
Fa la la...

Chorus

It's by Cara (or this version, anyway) but I'm pretty sure it's a traditional tune.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!!
