Verse 1
Through (A minor) mostly vacant (E minor) street (C major) s,
a baker from the outskirts (D major) of his town (A minor)
Earned his (E minor) living peddling sweet (C major) s
from a ragged cart (D major) he dragged around
(A minor) The clever fox (E minor) crept close (C major) behind,
kept an (D major) ever watchful eye (A minor)
For a chance to (E minor) steal a ginger spice (C major) cake
or a boysenberry (D major) pie (A minor) (E minor) (C major) (D major)
(A minor) Looking down (E minor) was
the (C major) hungry crow
When the (D major) time is right I'll strike (A minor)
And condescend (E minor) to the (C major) earth below
And take whichever (D major) treat I like
(A minor) The moment the (E minor) baker (C major) turned around
To shoo the fox (D major) off from his cart
(A minor) The crow swooped (E minor) down
and snatched (C major) a shortbread cookie
And a (D major) German chocolate tart (G major)
Using most unfriendly word (D major) s
Yet the village children had not yet heard (C major)
The baker shouted threat (G major) s by (D major) Cansonet
To curse the crafts bird (G major)
You rotten wooden mixing spoon (D major)
Why you midnight winged rac (C major) coon
You better bring (F major) those (C major) pastries (G major) back (D major)
You no good burnt black macar
(A minor) oon (E minor) (C major) (D major) (A minor) (E minor) (C major) (D major)
(A minor) The fox approached the tree
(E minor) where (C major) the bird was perched,
(D major) de lighted in his nest. (A minor) Brother crow, (E minor)
don't you remember (C major) me?
It's your old friend fox,
(D major) with a humble request,
(A minor) that you could share
(E minor) just a modest (C major) piece.
Seeing as I dis (D major) tracted
that awful man, (A minor)
this failed to per (E minor) suade the
crow the (C major) least, so
So the fox rethought (D major) his plan
An (A minor) d if your lovely (E minor) song
would grace my (C major) ears
Or to (D major) even hear you speak (A minor)
Would ease my pains (E minor) and fears
(C major) The crow looked down
with a (D major) candy in his beak
(A minor) Your poems of (E minor) wisdom, my good (C major) crow
What a (D major) paradise they bring (A minor)
This flattery pleased (E minor) (C major) the proud (E minor) bird (C major) so
He opened his (D major) mouth and began to sing
(G major) Your subtle acclamation's true
(D major) Best to give praise where praise is (C major) due
Every (G major) (A minor) brook an (G major) d jay in the (D major) core
of the day's been ravin' about me too
(G major) They admire me one and all, (D major)
must be the passion in my call
(C major) My slender (A minor) bill known
through (C major) the eschatol, (D major)
my fierce commanding claw (A minor)
(E minor) (A minor) (E minor)
(A minor) (E minor) (C major) (D major)
(G major) I've got a warm up brownie plate (D major)
and molasses in my vein (C major) s
Crushed (G major) (A minor) graham crack (C major) er crust,
(G major) my (D major) powdered sugar,
funnel cake cocaine (G major)
Let the crescent cookie rise, (D major)
these carrot -covered almond eye (C major) s
When rest must see my cashew prin (D major) cess
in the swirling marble sky (G major)
We'll rest upon the knee
(D major) where all divisions cease to be
(C major) And through fear float (A minor)
(C major) in our (G major) ba nana (D major) boat
across the tapioca (G major) sea
When letting all attachments go (D major)
is the only prayer we (C major) know
May it be so, may it be so, (D major)
may it be so
(G major)
