Reynardine Cifra

[Intro]
Cadd9  G/B  D
 
[Verse 1]
    D                 G
One evening as I rambled,
  D                 G
Among the leaves so green,
  D
I overheard a young woman,
     Cadd9     G/B    D
Converse with Reynardine.
 
[Verse 2]
    D                             G
Her hair was black, her eyes were blue,
    D              G
Her lips as red as wine,
        D
And he smiled to gaze upon her,
          Cadd9     G/B    D
Did that sly, bold Reynardine.
 
[Verse 3]
    D                      G
She said, "Kind sir, be civil,
    D          G
My company forsake,
    D
For in my own opinion,
   Cadd9    G/B      D
I fear you are some rake."
 
[Verse 4]
    D                        G
"Oh no," he said "no rake am I,
  D                   G
Brought up in Venus' train,
         D
But I'm seeking for concealment,
       Cadd9       G/B    D
All along the lonesome plain."
 
[Verse 5]
      D              G
"Your beauty so enticed me,
   D                G
I could not pass it by,
         D
So it's with my gun I'll guard you,
     Cadd9     G/B     D
All on the mountains high."
 
[Verse 6]
     D                               G
And if by chance you should look for me,
    D                  G
Perhaps you'll not me find.
     D
For I'll be in my castle,
     Cadd9       G/B  D
Inquire for Reynardine.
 
[Verse 7]
 D                         G
Sun and dark she followed him,
     D                  G
His teeth did brightly shine,
        D
And he led her over the mountains.
         Cadd9     G/B    D
Did that sly, bold Reynardine
