Songs From the Wood
I'll start this by saying that there is a capo on the second fret.
I will still call the strings EADGBE. The chords will be as if the
capo wasn't there.

Intro: G D
BbHave you Fseen the Cadd9Jack-in-the-GGreen'
-BbWith his Flong tail hanging Gdown.
BbHe quietly Fsits under Cadd9every Gtree
BbIn the Ffolds of his velvet Ggown.
BbHe drinks Ffrom the empty Cadd9acorn Gcup
BbThe dew that Fdawn sweetly beGstows.
BbAnd he Ftaps his cane Cadd9upon the Gground-
BbSignal the Fsnow drops, it's time to Ggrow.
G D
BbIt's no Ffun being Cadd9Jack-in-the-GGreen:
BbNo place to Fdance, no time for Gsong.
BbHe wears the Fcolours of the Cadd9summer Gsoldier;
BbCarries the Fgreen flag all winter Glong.
G D
AmJack, do you ever sleep-Ddoes the green still run Gin your heart'
Amor will these changing times, Dmotorways, powerlines, Gkeep us apart'
DWell, I don't Gthink so.
DI saw some grass growing tGhrough the pavement today.
(A verse with humming)
BbThe Rowan, the FOak, and the Cadd9Holly Gtree
BbAre the changes Fleft for him to Ggroom.
G D
BbEach blade of Fgrass whispers, &Cadd9quot;Jack-inG-the-Green."
Bb"Oh Jack, plFease help me through my winGters night."
BbAnd-"We areF the berries the onCadd9 the HGolly tree:
BbOh, the Mistle FThrust is coming, Jack, put out the Glight."
