Prickly Thorn, but Sweetly Worn The White Stripes
Tried the other version and it didn't work for me. This seems to work a lot better.
Intro: (Played on mandolin, but this is how it translates to guitar chords)
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Bm] [Asus2] [Bm] [Asus2] [D]
Well the [D]hills are pretty and rollin'
But the [F]thorn is [G]sharp and swo[D]llen
And the [D]man plays a beautiful whistle
But he [F]wears a [G]prickly [D]thistle
Singing [D]Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
Well A [F]Li De [G]Li De Li [D]Oh Oh
[D]Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
Well A [F]Li De [G]Li De Li [D]Oh Oh
The [D]silver birches pierce through an icy fog
Which [F]covers the [G]ground most d[D]aily
And the [D]angels which carry St. Andrew high
Are [F]singing a [G]tune most [D]gaily
One [D]sound can hold back a thousand hands
When the [F]pipe plays a [G]tune [D]forlorn
And t[D]he thistle is a prickly flower
Aye, But [F]how it is [G]sweetly [D]worn
Singing [D]Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
Well A [F]Li De [G]Li De Li [D]Oh Oh
[D]Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
Well A [F]Li De [G]Li De Li [D]Oh Oh
