Jack-In-The-Green

[Intro] A  F#m  D  E

[Primera Parte]

C       G        D            A
Have you seen the Jack-in-the-Green
 C       G                 A
With his long tail hanging down
C         G          D     A
He quietly sits under every tree
C     G                   A
In the folds of his velvet gown
C        G              D     A
He drinks from the empty acorn cup
C           G              A
The dew that dawn sweetly bestows
C     G             D        A
And he taps his cane upon the ground
C         G                       
Signal the snow drops it's time to 
 A
grow

C      G         D           A
It's no fun being Jack-in-the-Green
C          G                  A
No place to dance no time for song
C           G              D     
He wears the colours of the summer 
 A
soldier
C          G                     
Carries the green flag all winter 
A
long

( A  F#m  D  E )

Bm
Jack do you ever sleep?
E                            A   
Does the green still run deep in 
          G
your heart
Bm
Or will these changing times
E                    A             G
Motorways powerlines keep us apart
D             E
Well I don't think so
D          E                     
I saw some grass growing through 
               A
the pavement today

C             G           D     A
The Rowan the Oak and the Holly tree
C              G               A
Are the changes left for him to 
groom

( A  F#m  D  E )

C            G            
Each blade of grass whispers 
    D           A
Jack-in-the-Green
C               G                
Oh Jack please help me through my
          A
 winters night
C              G                  
And- We are the berries the on the
 D     A
 Holly tree
C             G                  
Oh the Mistle Thrust is coming 
                 A
Jack put out the light
