I don't think you should play it at all, it got nothing to do with
Henry the VIII, cat bless his name.
HOWEVER, I agree with Valery

Just take the William Ballet Lute book version, play ABAB as long as
the song goes on the same melody... works just fine...

Subject: [LUTE] Greensleeves
Hi all,
A singer I work with wants to do Greensleeves - I usually refuse,
but because of the (not necessarily accurate) associations with
Henry VIII and it being the anniversary of his accession, I have
capitulated.
Does anyone have a decent version that they could send me? I'd be
very grateful not to have to make my own version!
Thanks,
Peter
