*from 'A Gift from a Flower to a Garden' (1968)*
Verse 1:
Under the [C7]Greenwood tree, who loves to lie with [F]me?
And tune his merry note, un-[C7]to the sweet bird's throat?
Chorus 1:
Come [G]hither, come [F#]hither, come [F]hither,
Here shall he [C7]see no ene-[F]my,
But [G]winter [F]and rough [C7]weather.[G] [F] [C7]
Verse 2:
[C7] Who doth ambition shun and love to live in the [F]sun?
Seeking the food he eats and [C7]pleased with what he gets.
Chorus 2:
Come [G]hither, come [F#]hither, come [F]hither,
Here shall he [C7]see no ene-[F]my,
But [G]winter [F]and rough [C7]weather.[G] [F] [C7]
Verse 2:
[C7] And if it do come to pass that any man turned [F]ass,
Leaving his wealth and ease, a [C7]stubborn will to please.
Chorus 3:
Duc-[G]dame, duc-[F#]dame, duc-[F]dame,
There shall he [C7]see gross fools as [F]he.
And [G]it will [F]come to [C]me.
Coda:
[C7] Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, won't you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, won't you join the dance?
(Repeat to Fade)
