Autumn To May

(início)

C            Bm              C            D
Oh, once I had a little dog, his color it was brown,
      C               Bm          C                 D
I taught him how to whistle, to sing and dance and run.
      G        Em      Bm          Bm7      G       G/F#   Em
His legs they were fourteen yards long, his ears so very wide,
   G         Em     Bm    Bm7/E  C               D
Around the world in half a day, upon him I could ride.
 G    C       D    Em C            D
Sing tarry-o-day, Sing  Autumn to May.
     C            Bm              C             D
Oh, once I had a little frog, he wore a vest of red,
    C             Bm             C               D
He leaned upon a silver cane, a top hat on his head.
      G        Em     Bm    Bm7/E     G      G/F#    Em
He'd speak of far off places,   of things to see and do,
    G                 Em          Bm         C             D
And all the kings and queens he'd met, while sailing in a shoe.
 G    C       D    Em  C              D
Sing tarry-o-day, Sing    Autumn to May.
    C              Bm                   C            D
Oh, once I had a flock of sheep, they grazed upon a feather.
     C             Bm              C               D
I'd keep them in a music box from wind and rainy weather.
    G             Em         Bm
And every day the sun would shine,
        G                   Em
They'd fly all through the town
    G                  Em     Bm          C            D
To bring me back some golden rings, and candy by the pound.
 G     C      D    Em  C              D
Sing tarry-o-day, Sing     Autumn to May.
     C           Bm               C            D
Oh, once I had a downy swan, she was so very frail,
     C           Bm                C                 D
She sat upon an oyster shell, and hatched me out a snail.
      G        Em     Bm    Bm7/E       G            Em
The snail it changed into a bird, the bird to butterfly,
   G       Em      Bm     Bm7/E       C              D
And he who tells a bigger tale would have to tell a lie.
G    C       D    Em   C              D
Sing tarry-o-day, Sing     Autumn to May.
