The Fox, performed by Nickel Creek
Capo 2; chords relative to capo
GThe fox went out on a chilly night
He prayed for the moon to Dgive him light
GFor heâd many a mile toC go that night
GBefore he Dreached the Gtown-o, Dtown-o, Gtown-o
CHeâd many a mile toG go that night,D before he reached theG town-o
GHe ran til he came to the farmerâs pen
The ducks and the geese were Dkept therein
GHe said, ãa couple of you are gonnaC grease my chin,
GBefore I Dleave this Gtown-o, Dtown-o, Gtown-oä
CSaid a couple of you are gonna Ggrease my chin,D before I leave this Gtown-o
GHe grabbed the great goose by the neck
And he threw a duck Dacross his back
GAnd he didnât mind theC quack, quack
GAnd the legs all Ddangling Gdown-o, Ddown-o, Gdown-o
CHe didnât mind the quGack, quack and the leDgs all dangling doGwn-o
GThe old grey woman jumped out of bed
Out of the window she Dpopped her head,
GCrying John, John, the great Cgoose is gone
GAnd the fox is Don the Gtown-o, Dtown-o, Gtown-o
CJohn, John, the great Ggoose is gone and the Dfox is on the Gtown-o
GHe ran til he came to his nice warm den
And there were the little ones, Deight, nine, ten
GSayin Daddy, Daddy, better Cgo back again
GFor it must be a Dmight fine Gtown-o, Dtown-o, Gtown-o
CDaddy, Daddy, Ggo back again for it Dmust be mighty fine Gtown-o
GThe fox and his wife, without any strife
Cut up the goose with a Dfork and a knife
GThey never had such a Csupper in their life
GAnd the little ones Dchewed on the Gbones-o, Dbones-o, Gbones-o
CThey never had such a Gsupper in their life
And the Dlittle ones chewed on the Gbones
