I'll [Gm]buy you six [F]bay mares to [Dm]put in your [C]stable

I [Gm]am the first [F]piper [Dm]who calls the [C]sweet tune,

So come [E]on, [G]I'm the [D]whistler.[A]
I have a [E]fife and a [G]drum to play.[D] [A]

whistle along on the [E]seventh day.[G#]

[Gm]All kinds of [F]sadness [Dm]I've left be[C]hind me.
[Gm]Many's the [Dm]day when [F]I have done [C]wrong.
[Gm]But I'll be [F]yours for [Dm]ever and [C]ever.

[Gm]We'll find the [F]speck of [Dm]truth in each [C]riddle.
[Gm]Hold the first [Dm]grain of [F]love in our [C]hands.[A]
So come [E]on, [G]I'm the [D]whistler.[A]
