\begin{chorus}
\[Am]Are you going to \[Em]Scarborough \[Am]Fair
\[C] Parsley, \[Am]sage, rose\[C]ma\[D]ry and \[Am]thyme
Remember \[C]me to one who lives \[G]there
\[Am]She once \[G]was a \[Am]true love \[Em]of \[Am]mine
\end{chorus}
\begin{verse}
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt
\echo{On the side of a hill in the deep forest green}
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
\echo{Tracing of sparrow on snow crested brown}
Without no seams nor needle work
\echo{Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain}
Then she'll be a true love of mine
\echo{Sleeps unaware of the clarion call}
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
Tell her to find me an acre of land
\echo{On the side of a hill a sprinkling of leaves}
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
\echo{Washes the grave with silvery tears}
Between the salt water and the sea strands
\echo{A soldier cleans and polishes a gun}
Then she'll be a true love of mine
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather
\echo{War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions}
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
\echo{Generals order their soldiers to kill}
And gather it all in a bunch of heather
\echo{And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten}
Then she'll be a true love of mine
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
Are you going to Scarborough Fair
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She was once a true love of mine
\end{verse}
