D                       G     A
  On either side of the river lie
D                A      F#m    Bm
  Long fields of barley and of rye,
G                 D         A        Bm
  That clothe the world and meet the sky;
G                          A
  And thro' the field the road run by
G          A      D
  To many-towered Camelot;
Bm                    F#m
  And up and down the people go,
Bm        G         A     F#m
  Gazing where the lilies blow
Bm                F#m
  Round an island there below,
       G     A     Bm
  The island of Shalott.

D                      G     A
  A bow-shot from her bower-eaves,
D            A         F#m     Bm
  He rode between the barley sheaves,
G               D         A         Bm
  The sun came dazzling thro' the leaves,
G                       A
  And flamed upon the brazen greaves
      G        A    D
  Of bold Sir Lancelot.
Bm                       F#m
  A red-cross knight for ever kneel'd
Bm      G   A      F#m
  To a lady in his shield,
Bm                     F#m
  That sparkled on the yellow field,
G           A       Bm
  Beside remote Shalott.

D                         G        A
  She left the web, she left the loom,
D                 A     F#m       Bm
  She made three paces taro' the room,
G              D      A    Bm
  She saw the water-lily bloom,
G                     A
  She saw the helmet and the plume,
       G              A   D
  She looked down to Camelot.
Bm                     F#m
  Out flew the web and floated wide;
Bm            G            A       F#m
  The mirror cracked from side to side;
Bm                   F#m
  "The curse is come upon me," cried
       G    A     Bm
  The Lady of Shalott.

Bm               F#m
  In the stormy east-wind straining,
G                      A      F#m
  The pale yellow woods were waning,
Bm                        F#m
  The broad stream in his banks complaining.
G              A
  Heavily the low sky raining
G       A       Bm
  Over towered Camelot;
                    F#m
  Down she came and found a boat
Bm           G      A    F#m
  Beneath a willow left afloat,
Bm                    F#m
  And round about the prow she wrote
       G    A    Bm
  The Lady of Shalott.

D                   G       A
  Who is this? And what is here?
D             A       F#m    Bm
  And in the lighted palace near
G           D        A      Bm
  Died the sound of royal cheer;
G                       A
  And they crossed themselves for fear,
G                 A       D
  All the Knights at Camelot;
D                       G       A
  But Lancelot mused a little space
D                A      F#m   Bm
  He said, "She has a lovely face;
G             D      A       Bm
  God in his mercy lend her grace,
       G    A     D
  The Lady of Shalott."
