[Verse 1]
F#m E A
in the year of our lord 1239
F#m E F#m
there once lived a girl of the royal line
F#m E A
the ancient stories do recall
F#m E F#m
she was the fairest of them all
F#m E A
in the castle made of stone
F#m D E F#m
any night she slept alone
F#m E A
any noise that would raise the dead
F#m D E F#m
couldn't wake her sleepyhead
[Chorus]
F#m E E F#m
Oh- oh- oh- oh
F#m D E A
Oh- oh- oh- oh
F#m E E F#m
Oh- oh- oh- oh
F#m D E A
Oh- oh- oh- oh
F#m E E F#m
Oh- oh- oh- oh
[Verse 2]
F#m E A
the stranger came from the foreign land
F#m E F#m
asking for the maiden's hand
F#m E A
her father said no go away
F#m E F#m
she's gonna marry a king one day
F#m E A
the stranger he came back again
F#m D E F#m
riding with 10 thousand men
F#m E A
the battle cries filled all with dread
F#m D E F#m
but couldn't wake her sleepyhead
[Chorus]
F#m E E F#m
Oh- oh- oh- oh
F#m D E A
Oh- oh- oh- oh
F#m E E F#m
Oh- oh- oh- oh
F#m D E A
Oh- oh- oh- oh
F#m E E F#m
Oh- oh- oh- oh
[Verse 3]
F#m E A
the fighting lasted all day long
F#m E F#m
but the castle walls where thick and strong
F#m E A
the stranger cried let her decide
F#m D E F#m
where her true affections lie
F#m E A
so the king knocked on her door
F#m E F#m
only you can end this war
F#m E A
no one knows how the story ends
F#m B E F#m
did she ever wake again?
F#m D E F#m
will she ever wake again?
