Verse 1
(D major) If you can't answer my questions,
nine,
Sing ninety -nine and ninety,
Then you're not God's,
you're (G major) one of mine,
And you're not the (D major) weaver

Oh, what is whiter than the milk?
Sing ninety -nine and ninety,
And what is (G major) softer than the silk?
And you're not (A major) the weaver's bon (D major) nie.
Oh, snow is whiter (G major) than the (D major) milk,
sang ninety -nine and ninety,
And down is softer (G major) than the silk,
and I am the (D major) weaver's bonny.
Oh, what is higher than the tree,
sang ninety -nine and ninety,
And what is (G major) deeper than the sea,
and you're not the weaver's (D major) bonny.
Oh, heaven is (G major) higher than the tree,
Sing ninety (D major) -n ine and ninety,
And hell is (G major) deeper than the sea,
And I am the weaver's (D major) bonnie.
Oh, what is louder than the horn,
Sing ninety -nine and ninety,
And what is sharper (G major) than the thorn,
And you're not the weaver's (D major) bonnie.
Oh, thunder's (G major) louder than the horn,
Sing ninety (D major) -nine and ninety,
And hunger's (G major) sharper than the thorn,
And I am the weaver's (D major) bonnie.
Oh, what is heavier than the land,
Sing ninety -nine and ninety,
And what is bet (G major) ter than the bread,
And (A major) you're not the (D major) weaver's bonnie.
Oh, grief is heavier than the lead,
saying ninety -nine and ninety,
God's blessing's (G major) better than the bread,
and I (B flat major) am the (G major) weaver's bonny.
(D major) Oh, what is wicked man's
repay?
Sing ninety -nine and ninety,
and what is worse (G major) than woman's
way?
And you're not the (D major) weaver's bonny.
Oh, the devil is a wicked (G major) man's (D major) repay,
saying ninety -nine and ninety.
And a she -devil's worse (G major) than a woman's way,
and I am the weaver's bonny.
(D major) Now you have answered
my questions nine,
saying ninety -nine and ninety.
And you are God's,
you're (G major) none of mine,
and you (D major) are the weaver's bonny.
