Oh, who told the Butcher
     C                  Bb
All about the Grey Goose?
C                          F        Bb
Oh, it could have been the Poacher
       C
Nobody knows

[Verse]
 F
Or it could have been the Royal Coachman
  Bb                C
Or Connemara Black
                             F
Just listen well to what the ladies say
    Bb                C
And bring old Brownie back

[Verse]
    F
And who told the Butcher
          C           Bb     C
About the Lady Of The Lake?
                       F                  Bb
It could have been the Queen Of The Water
       C
Nobody knows

[Verse]
  F
Or it could have been old Soldier Palmer
  Bb               C
Or Teal and Black
                             F
Just listen well to what the ladies say
    Bb                C
And bring old Brownie back

[Chorus]
         F
Come on, tie the damsels, two to the droppers
                   C
And tie old Kate McClaren to the point
        F
There's none so wise to the rise of the river
    Bb                  C
The Butcher's out there tonight

[Chorus]
         F
Come on, tie the damsels, two to the droppers
                   C
And tie old Kate McClaren to the point
        F
There's none so wise to the rise of the river
    Bb                  C
The Butcher's out there tonight
             Bb                  C
You know the Butcher's out there tonight

[Verse]
        F
Oh, and who told the Butcher
     C             Bb     C
All about the Grenadier?
                       F               Bb
It could have been the Teal and Green
       C
Nobody knows

[Verse]
  F
Or it could have been old Wickham's Fancy
  Bb
Or Humpty Back
   C                             F
Ah, just listen well to what the ladies say
    Bb                C
And bring old Brownie back

[Chorus]
         F
Come on, tie the damsels, two to the droppers
                   C
And tie old Kate McClaren to the point
        F
There's none so wise to the rise of the river
    Bb                  C
The Butcher's out there tonight

[Chorus]
         F
Come on, tie the damsels, two to the droppers
                   C
And tie old Kate McClaren to the point
        F
There's none so wise to the rise of the river
    Bb                  C
The Butcher's out there tonight
    Bb                  C
The Butcher's out there tonight
    Bb                  C
The Butcher's out there tonight
    Bb                  F       Bb F
The Butcher's out there tonight
