F# A B X3
F# A B F# [Verse 1]
F# A E As it fell out upon one day,
F# E Rich Divès made a feast.
F# A E He's invited all his friends,
F# And gentry of the best.
A E Then Lazarus he laid him down and
B down
F# E and down by Divèrus' door:
F# "Some meat, some drink brother
A E Diverus,
F# Bestow upon the poor." [Verse 2]
A E "Thou'rt none of my brothers,
B Lazarus,
F# E That liest begging at my door;
F# A No meat, no drink, shall I give
E thee,
F# Nor bestow upon the poor."
F# A Then Lazarus he laid him down and
E down,
F# E and down by Divès' wall:
F# "Some meat, some drink, brother
A E Diverus,
F# For hunger starve I shall." [Verse 3]
A E "Thou'rt none of my brothers,
B Lazarus,
F# E That liest begging at my wall;

F# A E No meat, no drink, will I give thee,
F# and for hunger starve you shall."
F# A E Then Lazarus laid him down and down
F# E and down by Dives' gate.
F# Some meat, some drink brother
A E diverus
F# for Jesus Christ's sake. [Verse 4]
A E "Thou'rt none of my brothers,
B Lazarus,
F# E That liest begging at my gate;
F# A No meat, nor drink shall I give
E thee,
F# for Jesus Christ's sake."
F# A E Then Divès sent out his hungry dogs,
F# E To bite him as he lay;
F# But they hadn't the power for to
A E bite one bite,
F# But they licked his sores away. [Verse 6]
A E B Then Diverus sent his hired men,
F# E for to beat him where he lay;
F# But They hadn't the power for to
A E strike one stroke,
F# But flung their whips away. [Verse 7]
F# A E As it fell out, upon one day,
F# E Poor Lazarus sickened and died;
F# A E there came two angels out of heaven,
F# his soul therein to guide.
A E B "Rise up! rise up! brother Lazarus,
F# E And go along with me;
F# A E There is a place prepared in heaven,
F# For to sit on an angel's knee." [Verse 8]
F# A E As it fell out upon one day,
F# E Rich Divès sickened and died;
F# A E There came two serpents out of hell,
F# His soul therein to guide.
A E B "Rise up! rise up! brother Diverus,
F# E And come along with me;
F# A E There is a place prepared in hell
F# For wicked men like thee." [Verse 9]
A E B Then Divès looked up with his eyes
F# E And saw poor Lazarus blest;
F# "Give me one drop of water, brother
A E Lazarus,
F# To quench my flaming thirst."
