Autumn to may

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.
