Autumn To May Cifras

F               Em              F            G
Oh once I had a little dog, his color it was brown
  F                 Em          F                  G
I taught him for to whistle, to sing and dance and run
C                      Am         Em        C            Am
His legs they were fourteen yards long, his ears so very wide
C                   Am     Em    F               G
Around the world in half a day, upon him I could ride.
C    F       G    Am    F         G
Sing Tarry-O Day, Sing, Autumn to May.
 
F               Em              F              G
Oh once I had a little frog, he wore a vest of red
     F             Em             F              G
He'd lean upon his silver cane, a top hat on his head
C                     Am         C                 Am
He'd speak of far off places, of things to see and do,
C                    Am          Em        F            G
Of all the Kings and Queens he'd met while sailing in a shoe.
C    F       G    Am    F         G
Sing Tarry-O Day, Sing, Autumn to May.
 
F               Em                   F             G
Oh once I had a flock of sheep, they grazed upon a feather
    F              Em             F             G
I'd keep them in a music box from wind or rainy weather
    C             Am        Em            C                   Am
And every day the sun would shine, they'd fly all through the town
C                     Am     Em     F            G
To bring me back some golden rings, candy by the pound.
C    F       G    Am    F         G
Sing Tarry-O Day, Sing, Autumn to May.
 
F               Em           F               G
Oh once I had a downey swan, she was so very frail
    F           Em               F                G
She sat upon an oyster shell and hatched me out a snail
    C                   Am   Em        C       Am
The snail had changed into a bird, the bird to butterfly
    C              Am     Em         F              G
And he who tells a bigger tale would have to tell a lie.
C    F       G    Am    F         G
Sing Tarry-O Day, Sing, Autumn to May.
