VERSE 1

D                                    G      F      D
My true love went riding out in white and green grey
                                         G      F          D
Past the pale of Arthur's wall, where she was wont to stray
    G         F      D         G        F       D  
And there she came upon a white and wounded fawn

CHORUS
 
       F  Em   F     D          G
Singing Oh oh, the hazards of love

VERSE 2

D                            G      F         D
She being full of charity, a credit to her sex
                                          G         F           D
Sought to right the fawn's hind leg, when here her plans were vexed
   G          F         D         G F         D
The Taiga shifted strange, the beast began to change

CHORUS

       F  Em   F     D          G
Singing Oh oh, the hazards of love
       F  Em   F     D          G
Singing Oh oh, the hazards of love
F                    D
You'll learn soon enough
    F         D              F           D         G     D
The prettiest whistles won't wrestle the thistles undone, undone

VERSE 3
                                  G  F       D
Fifteen lissome maidens lay, along in their bower
                                 G     F     D
Fourteen occupations paid, to pass the idle hour
G          F       D     G              F           D
Margaret heaves a sigh, her hands clasped to her thighs

Singing Oh oh, the hazards of love
       F  Em   F     D          G

In all of the places I have the riff, you can just play the D chord. Played in 
drop D with the chord formations like this:

13. Annan Water 

VERSE 1

Am
Annan water, you loom so deep and wide 
I would cross over if you would stem the tide 
Or build a boat that I might ford the other side                    
                                                                  F
To reach the farther shore where my true love lies in wait for me 
G           Am   F           Em  G           Am              
In wait for me,  in wait for me, in wait for me 

VERSE 2

Oh, great river, your waters ramble wild
The horses shiver and bite against the bridle
But I will cross if mine own horse is pulled from me 
                                                            F
Though my mother cries that if I try I sure will drowned be
G             Am  F            Em G             Am
Will drowned be, will drowned be, will drowned be 

CHORUS

But if you calm     and let me pass 
         D           E                 A   A7
You may render me a wreck when I come back 
               D   Dm                A     A7
So calm your waves     and slow the churn 
             D               E                Am
And you may have my precious bones on my return 

VERSE 3

Annan water, oh hear my true love's call 
Hear her holler above your water's pall 
God, that I could that my two arms could give me wings
                                                                      F
And I would cross your breadth and rest my breast about her amber ring

Her amber ring, her amber ring, her amber ring

Verse 1:
Em                                                        G
Margaret arrayed the rocks around the hull before it was sinking 
Em                                                             G
A million stones, a million bones, a million holes within the chinking
Am                             C                                          
And painting rings around your eyes these peppered holes
                 G
So filled with crying
Am                          C                                  G
A whisper weighed upon the tattered down where you and I were lying 

Verse 2: 
Em                                                    G
Tell me now, tell me this, A forest's son, a river's daughter 
Em                                                              G 
A willow on the willow wisp, our ghosts will wander all of the water
Am                        C                                     G 
So let's be married here today these rushing waves to bare our witness 
Am                          C                             G       Em  D
And we will lie like river stones rolling only where it takes us 

Chorus: 
    C                Am           G         Em              D
But I pulled you and I called you here   (Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I?)
    Am               C             G       Em
And I caught you and I brought you here  (Didn’t I)
       D         Am   C/B   C       D                 G

Em                                                             G
Oh Margaret the lapping waves are licking quietly at our ankles
Em                                                                   G
Another bow another breath this brilliant chills come for the shackle
Am                           C                                      G
With this long last rush of air we speak our vows and sorry whispers
Am                            C                                            G
When the waves came crashing down, he closed his eyes and softly kissed her

Chorus:
    C                Am           G         Em              D
