Greensleeves Guitar TAB (With Chords)
This arrangement of Greensleeves is suitable for early-stage fingerstyle guitarists. It will sound good on either acoustic or classical guitar.
You could also try playing it on an electric guitar with a clean sound.
How To Play Greensleeves On Guitar
This arrangement of Greensleeves doesn’t move out of first position and contains quite a few open strings, making it relatively straightforward to play.
The piece is in A minor*, which means that there are no sharps or flats in the key signature. However, there are several sharpened notes (marked with a #) that you should watch out for if you are reading the music notation (as opposed to the tab).
The sharp signs raise the pitch of the note by a semitone. Refer to the tab if necessary to hear how the music should sound.
You can repeat the whole piece 2 or 3 times. If you are playing the chord part, you could play an A major chord instead of an A minor chord at the end of the final repetition. This gives the piece a ‘happy ending’ (this effect is known as a ‘tierce de Picardie’ in classical music.
Left Hand Fingering
The small numbers by the side of certain notes indicate which finger should be used. The fingers of the fretting hand are numbered 1 (index finger) to 4 (little finger).
Use the thumb of the right hand to play the bass notes.
Greensleeves Time Signature
The piece is in 6/8 time. This means that there are 2 main beats in each bar, each of which is sub-divided into three. One way of counting a 6/8 rhythm is by counting ‘ONE-two-three, TWO-two-three’.
You could also count ‘One-Two-Three-Four-Five-Six’, placing a slight stress on the ‘One’ and ‘Four’ beats.
The first note of Greensleeves is a ‘pick-up note’, or ‘anacrusis’. Both of these terms mean an additional note (or notes) that occurs before the first full bar of music. Therefore, when playing Greensleeves, start counting on the second note of the piece (i.e. the 1st beat of the 1st full bar of music).

Greensleeves
“Greensleeves” is a traditional English ballad that dates back to the sixteenth century, but one knows for sure who wrote the lyrics or the melody. The legend has it, that the words to “Greensleeves” were written for Anne Boleyn by King Henry VIII during their courtship, which apparently wasn’t going well for him. There is also the belief that the song was composed after Henry’s death because this Italian style of music had not reached England yet.
The video below is the solo arrangement of “Greensleeves” with the tab in the video. See below the video for the PDF.
