[Verse 1]
O, bid me leap, rather than marry Paris,
From off the battlements of any tower,
Or walk in thievish ways, or bid me lurk
Where serpents are.
Chain me with roaring bears,
Or hide me nightly in a charnel house,
O'ercovered quite with dead men's rattling bones,
With reeky shanks and yellow chapless skulls.
[Pre-Chorus]
Or bid me go into a new-made grave
And hide me with a dead man in his shroud'
[Chorus]
And I will do it without fear or doubt,
To live an unstained wife to my sweet love
To live an unstained wife to my sweet love
And I will do it without fear or doubt,
[Bridge]
Or bid me go into a new-made grave
And hide me with a dead man in his shroud'
[Final Chorus]
And I will do it without fear or doubt,
To live an unstained wife to my sweet love
To live an unstained wife to my sweet love
And I will do it without fear or doubt,
