Holiday,
Verse 1
a holiday,
and the first one of the year
G
Lord Donald's wife came into the church,
Am
G
the gospel for to hear
A
And when the meeting it was done,
Am
she cast her eyes about
A
And there she's spied,
G
little Maddy Groves,
Am
G
walking in the crowd
A
Am
Come home with me,
little Maddy Groves,
come home with me tonight
A
Am
Come home with me,
G
little Maddy Groves,
Am
G
sleep with me till night
A
Well, I can't come home,
I won't come home
and sleep with you tonight
Am
By the rings on your fingers
G
A
G
A
I can tell you are Lord Donald's wife
Am
What if I am Lord Donald's wife,
Lord Donald's not at home
G
He's out in the far cornfields
A
G
A
bringing the yearlings home

And the servant who was standing by
and hearing what was said
Am
G
He swore Lord Dom he would know
A
G
A
before the sun had set
And in his hurry to carry the noose
he bent his breast and ran
G
When he came to the broad mill stream
A
G
he took off his shoes and
Am
A

swam

Eddie Groves,
Am
A
he laid down to take a little sleep
Am

When he awoke,
G
A
G
Lord Donald was standing at his feet
A
Saying, how do you like my feather bed
and how do you like my sheets?
Am
A
G
How do you like my lady,
Am
G
A
who lies in your arms asleep?
Am
Well, it's well I like your feather bed,
A
and well I like your sheets
Am
G
But better I like your lady game,
Am
G
Am
who lies in my arms asleep
A
Well, get up, get up, Lord Dom will cry
Get up as quick as you can
G
It'll never be said in fair England,
A
G
A
that I slew a na ked man
Am
I won't get up, I won't get up,
A
I can't get up from my life
G
For you have two long beaten swords,
Am
G
and I have not a pocket knife
Am
A
Well it's true I have two beaten swords,
Am
and they cost me deep in the purse
G
But you'll have the better of them,
A
G
A
and I will have the worse
And you'll strike the very first blow,
striking like a man
Am
G
I'll strike the very next blow
A
G
A
Am
A
and I'll kill you if I can

So Mattie struck the very first blow
When he heard Lord Donald soar
Am
A
G
Lord Donald struck the very next blow
A
G
and Maddie struck no more
A
And then Lord Donald,
he took his wife
Am
and sat her on his knee
G
He said, who do you like the best of us?
Am
G
A
Mad die Groves or me?
And then up spoke his own dear wife,
never heard him speak so free
Am
G
I'd rather a kiss from dead
Maddie's lips
Am
G
A
Am
A
G
than hear you fight me
A
G
A
Lord Donald, he jumped up,
Am
A
and loudly he did bawl
G
He struck his wife right through the heart,
A
an d pinned her against the wall
Oh, brave, oh brave Lord, don't cry
To put these lovers in
Am
G
But bury my lady at the top
A
G
A
G
For he was a noble man
