The Fox, performed by Nickel Creek
Capo 2; chords relative to capo
FThe fox went out on a chilly night
He prayed for the moon to Ggive him light
FFor heâd many a mile toF go that night
FBefore he Greached the Ftown-o, Gtown-o, Ftown-o
FHeâd many a mile toF go that night,G before he reached theF town-o
FHe ran til he came to the farmerâs pen
The ducks and the geese were Gkept therein
FHe said, ãa couple of you are gonnaF grease my chin,
FBefore I Gleave this Ftown-o, Gtown-o, Ftown-oä
FSaid a couple of you are gonna Fgrease my chin,G before I leave this Ftown-o
FHe grabbed the great goose by the neck
And he threw a duck Gacross his back
FAnd he didnât mind theF quack, quack
FAnd the legs all Gdangling Fdown-o, Gdown-o, Fdown-o
FHe didnât mind the quFack, quack and the leGgs all dangling doFwn-o
FThe old grey woman jumped out of bed
Out of the window she Gpopped her head,
FCrying John, John, the great Fgoose is gone
FAnd the fox is Gon the Ftown-o, Gtown-o, Ftown-o
FJohn, John, the great Fgoose is gone and the Gfox is on the Ftown-o
FHe ran til he came to his nice warm den
And there were the little ones, Geight, nine, ten
FSayin Daddy, Daddy, better Fgo back again
FFor it must be a Gmight fine Ftown-o, Gtown-o, Ftown-o
FDaddy, Daddy, Fgo back again for it Gmust be mighty fine Ftown-o
FThe fox and his wife, without any strife
Cut up the goose with a Gfork and a knife
FThey never had such a Fsupper in their life
FAnd the little ones Gchewed on the Fbones-o, Gbones-o, Fbones-o
FThey never had such a Fsupper in their life
And the Glittle ones chewed on the Fbones
