[Verse]

    Am
The fairy folk have gathered
          Am
round the new-moon shine
   Am
To see the feller crack a nut at
B
night's noon-time
             Em
To swing his axe he swears,
      D
as it climbs he dares
     C
To deliver
    Am     B
The Master-Stroke

[Chorus]

C           G        Am
Ploughman, "Waggoner Will", and types
    C      G        Am
Politician with senatorial pipe -
             Dm       Am
he's a dilly-dally-o
F
Pedagogue squinting, wears a frown
      F     C           Dm
And a satyr peers under lady's
              Am
gown, a dirty fellow
             Dm     F G
What a dirty laddio

[Chorus]

Tatterdemalion and a junketer
          C           G         Am
There's a thief and a dragonfly
                  Dm       Am
trumpeter he's my hero (a- ah)
F
Fairy dandy tickling the
Bb    F      C    Dm
fancy of his lady friend
             Am
The nymph in yellow (can we see the master stroke)
              Dm     F G
What a quaere fellow

[Verse]
Am
Soldier, sailor, tinker, tailor, ploughboy
B
Waiting to hear the sound
        Em                D
And the arch-magician presides
          C       Am B
He is the leader

[Chorus]

  C        G       Am
Oberon and Titania watched by a harridan
C          G                   Am
Mab is the queen and there's a good apothecary-man
Dm
Come to say hello
