Verse 1
(F major) As I (Csus2) roved out one (C major) summer's (F major) morn,
I saw a (A minor) scarecrow tied (E minor) to a pole
in the (F major) field of corn.
His (C major) coat (Csus2) was black and
his head was (F major) bare
And as the (A minor) wind shook him
the (E minor) crows took him to the (F major) air
I (A minor) wish you'd (G major) lay me down (D major) and (E minor) love me
(A minor) Ah, but you'd (G major) lay me down (D major) and
(E minor) love me if you (F major) could
For you're (C major) only a (Csus2) bang of her hands
in an (C major) over (Csus2) (F major) all
That the (A minor) wind sways so
the (E minor) crows fly away
And the (F major) corn can grow tall
And as I (C major) roved (Csus2) out one winter's (F major) day
I saw an (A minor) old man hanging (E minor) from a pole
in the (F major) field of clay
This (A minor) colt (C major) was (Csus2) gone
and his head (C major) hung (F major) low
Till the (A minor) wind flung it up
to (E minor) look round its neck and let it (F major) go
How (A minor) could you (G major) lay me down
(D major) and (E minor) look me?
How (A minor) (Dsus4) could you (G major) lay me down
(D major) and (E minor) look me (F major) now
For you're (A minor) only a bank (Csus2) of bones
in an (C major) over (Csus2) (F major) all
That the (A minor) wind blows
and the (E minor) kids throw stones
at the (F major) thing on the pole
And as (C major) I (Csus2) roved out one (C major) fine spring (F major) day
I (G major) (F major) saw twelve (A minor) jolly dons
dressed (E minor) out in the blue and
the (F major) dogs all gay,
and (A minor) to a stake (C major) they
(Csus2) tied a child newborn,
(F major) and the (A minor) songs were sung,
The (E minor) bells once rung and they
(F major) sounded cold
Now (A minor) you can (G major) lay me down and (E minor) love me
Now (A minor) you can (G major) lay me down
(D major) and (E minor) love me if you (F major) will
For you're (A minor) only a (C major) bang (Csus2) of ranks
(C major) in an (Dsus4) over (C major) (F major) all
But the (A minor) wind blew,
the (E minor) sun shone through,
and the (F major) corn grew tall.
As I (Csus2) roved out (C major) one summer's (F major) morn,
I saw a (A minor) scarecrow tied (E minor) to a pole
in the (F major) field of corn. you
