Alison Gross that lives in yon tower
AmGCDE
The ugliest witch in the North Country
CGAmE
Has trysted me one day up to her bower
AmEE7Am
And many a fair speech she made to me
AmGCE
She stroked my head and she combed my hair
AmGCDE
She set me down softly on her knee
CGAmE
Saying if you will be my lover so true
AmEE7Am
So many good things I would give to you
AmGCE
Away, away, you ugly witch
AmGCDE
Go far away and let me be
CGAmE
I never will be your lover so true
AmEE7Am
And I'd wish I was out of your company
Chorus:
AmG
Alison Gross she must be
AmEGD
The ugliest witch in the North Country
AmG
Alison Gross she must be
AmEGDE
The ugliest witch in the North Country
AmGCE
She showed me a mantle of red scarlet
AmGCDE
With golden flowers and fringes fine
CGAmE
Says if you would be my lover so true
AmEE7Am
This goodly gift it shall be thine
AmGCE
She showed me a shirt of the softest silk
AmGCDE
Well wrought with pearls abound the band
CGAmE
Saying if you will be my lover so true
AmEE7Am
This goodly gift you shall command
Chorus

The ugliest witch in the North Country

She showed me a cup of the good red gold
AmGCDE
Well set with jewels so fair to see
CGAmE
Says if you will be my lover so true
AmEE7Am
This goodly gift I will give to thee
AmGCE
Away, away, you ugly witch
AmGCDE
Go far away and let me be

I never would kiss your ugly mouth
AmEE7Am
For all of the gifts that you could give
Chorus
AmG
Alison Gross she must be
AmEGD
The ugliest witch in the North Country
AmG
Alison Gross she must be
AmEGDE
The ugliest witch in the North Country
AmGCE
She turned her right and round about
AmGCDE
And thrice she blew on a grass-green horn
CGAmE
She swore by the moon and the stars of above
AmEE7Am
That she'd make me rue the day I was born
AmGCE
The out she has taken a silver wand
AmGCDE
She's turned her three times round and round
CGAmE
She muttered such words till my strength it did fail
AmEE7Am
And she's turned me into an ugly worm
Chorus
AmG
Alison Gross she must be
AmEGD
The ugliest witch in the North Country
AmG
Alison Gross she must be
AmEGDE
The ugliest witch in the North Country
