Am     G          C            E 
Alison Gross that lives in yon tower 
    Am      G     C      D     E 
The ugliest witch in the North Country 
    C       G          Am        E 
Has trysted me one day up to her bower 
    Am     E               E7      Am 
And many a fair speech she made to me 


    Am         G            C         E 
She stroked my head and she combed my hair 
    Am     G    C      D      E 
She set me down softly on her knee 
       C      G          Am       E 
Saying if you will be my lover so true 
   Am   E    E7             Am 
So many good things I would give to you 


Am    G         C    E 
Away, away, you ugly witch 
Am     G        C   D  E 
Go far away and let me be 
  C          G       Am       E 
I never will be your lover so true 
        Am         E      E7   Am 
And I'd wish I was out of your company 


Am                    G 
Alison Gross she must be

    Am          G         C   E 
She showed me a mantle of red scarlet 
     Am     G       C   D       E 
With golden flowers and fringes fine 
     C      G        Am          E 
Says if you would be my lover so true 
     Am     E       E7       Am 
This goodly gift it shall be thine 



    Am          G            C       E 
She showed me a shirt of the softest silk 
     Am           G      C    D     E 
Well wrought with pearls abound the band 
       C      G          Am       E 
Saying if you will be my lover so true 
     Am     E        E7    Am 
This goodly gift you shall command 



Am                    G 
Alison Gross she must be 
    Am      E            G     D 
The ugliest witch in the North Country 
Am                    G 
Alison Gross she must be 
    Am      E     G      D     E 
The ugliest witch in the North Country 


    Am          G          C        E 
She showed me a cup of the good red gold 
     Am       G      C  D       E 
Well set with jewels so fair to see 
C           G          Am       E 
Says if you will be my lover so true 
     Am     E           E7      Am 
This goodly gift I will give to thee 



Am    G         C    E 
Away, away, you ugly witch 
Am     G    C   D      E 
Go far away and let me be 
  C     G     Am        E 
I never would kiss your ugly mouth 
    Am         E          E7        Am 
For all of the gifts that you could give 

 
Am                    G 
Alison Gross she must be 
    Am      E            G     D 
The ugliest witch in the North Country 
Am                    G 
Alison Gross she must be 
    Am      E     G      D     E 
The ugliest witch in the North Country 



    Am         G         C     E 
She turned her right and round about 
    Am         G         C     D     E 
And thrice she blew on a grass-green horn 
    C            G            Am       E 
She swore by the moon and the stars of above 
           Am      E       E7        Am 
That she'd make me rue the day I was born 




    Am          G       C      E 
The out she has taken a silver wand 
      Am         G     C     D         E 
She's turned her three times round and round 
    C             G             Am              E 
She muttered such words till my strength it did fail 
    Am           E          E7   Am 
And she's turned me into an ugly worm 


Am                    G 
Alison Gross she must be 
    Am      E            G     D 
The ugliest witch in the North Country 
Am                    G 
Alison Gross she must be 
    Am      E     G      D     E 
The ugliest witch in the North Country
