The Kingston Trio is an American folk group that helped launch the folk revival of the 1960s and continued to thrive despite the emergence of rock and roll.
The Kingston Trio was formed in 1957 in the Palo Alto, California area by original lineup of Dave Guard (1934–1991), Bob Shane (1934–2020), and Nick Reynolds (1933–2008), who were just out of college. Greatly influenced by The Weavers, the calypso sounds of Harry Belafonte, and other semi-popular folk artists such as the Gateway Singers and the Tarriers

6m * * * Oh in the Tower of London large as life 3 * 6m * The ghost of Anne Bo-leyn walks, they de-clare 6m * * * For Anne Boleyn was once King Henry's wife 3m * 6m * Un-til he had the axeman bob her hair 3 2m 6m * Oh yes, he done her wrong, long years a-go 2m * 3 * And she comes back each night to tell him so ..(CH)
CHORUS:
6m * * * With her head tucked underneath her arm 6m * * * She walks___ the bloody tower 2m * 6m * With her head tucked underneath her arm 77 * 3 * At the mid-night hour
6m * 3 6m She's going to find King Henry, she's giving him what-for 6m * 3 6m Gad-zooks, she's going to tell him off for having spilled her gore 3 2m 6m 2m And just in case the axeman wants to give her an en-core 3 * 6m * She's got her head tucked underneath her arm 6m * 3 6m A-long the drafty corridors for miles and miles she goes 6m * 3 6m She sometimes catches cold, poor thing, it's cold there when it blows 3 2m 6m 2m And it's awfully awkward for the queen when she has to blow her nose ..(CH)

BRIDGE (CHORDS SAME AS INTRO):
6m * * * Now sometimes old King Henry throws a spread 3 * 6m * For all his pals and gals, the ghostly crew 6m * * * The axeman carves the joints and cuts the bread 3m * 6m * When in walks Anne Bo-leyn to spoil the "do " (OR: "queer") 3 2m 6m * She holds her head up with a wild war whoop 2m * 3 * And Henry cries, Don't drop it in the soup
3 * 6m * One day she found King Henry, he was in the castle bar 6m * 3 6m Are you Jane Seymour, Anne Bo-leyn or Katherine Parr 3 2m 6m 2m Now how the Hell (Sam Jerry?) am I to know just who you are 3 * 6m * You got your head tucked underneath your arm
3 * 6m * The sentries think that it's a football that she carries in 6m * 3 6m And when they see her, they all shout, Is Army going to win 3 2m 6m 2m For they think that it's Red Grange instead of poor old Anne Bo-leyn ..(CH)
