As [D] I went a [G] walking one [A7] morning in [D] spring
I met with some [G] trav'lers in an [A7] old country [D] lane
One was an [G] old man the [A7] second a [D] maid, ,
And the third was a [G] young boy who [A7] smiled as he [D] said: [D7]
{c: }
With the [G] wind in the [D] willows and the [G] birds in the [D] sky,
There’s a [G] bright sun to [D] warm us where[G]ever we [A7] lie,
We [D] have bread and [G] fishes and a [A7] jug of red [D] wine
To [G] share on our journey with [A7] all of man[D]kind.
{c: }
I [D] sat down be[G]side them with the [A7] gay flowers a[D]round,
And we ate from a [G] mantle spread [A7] out on the [D] ground
They told me of [G] peoples and [A7] prophets and [D] kings
And [G] all of the one god who [A7] knew every[D]thing [D7]
{c: }
With the [G] wind in the [D] willows and the [G] birds in the [D] sky,
There’s a [G] bright sun to [D] warm us where[G]ever we [A7] lie,
We [D] have bread and [G] fishes and a [A7] jug of red [D] wine
To [G] share on our journey with [A7] all of man[D]kind.
{c: }
So I [D] asked them to [G] tell me their [A7] name and their [D] race
That I may re[G]member their [A7] kindness and [D] grace.
My name it is [G] Joseph, this is [A7] Mary my [D] wife
And this is our [G] young son, who [A7] is our dear [D] life [D7]
{c: }
With the [G] wind in the [D] willows and the [G] birds in the [D] sky,
There’s a [G] bright sun to [D] warm us where[G]ever we [A7] lie,
We [D] have bread and [G] fishes and a [A7] jug of red [D] wine
To [G] share on our journey with [A7] all of man[D]kind.
{c: }
We are [D] travelling to [G] Glaston, through [A7] England’s green [D] lanes,
To hear of men’s [G] troubles, to [A7] hear of men’s [D] pains.
We travel the [G] wide world, o’er the [A7] lands and the [D] seas
To tell all the [G] people how [A7] they can be [D] free [D7]
{c: }
With the [G] wind in the [D] willows and the [G] birds in the [D] sky,
There’s a [G] bright sun to [D] warm us where[G]ever we [A7] lie,
We [D] have bread and [G] fishes and a [A7] jug of red [D] wine
To [G] share on our journey with [A7] all of man[D]kind.
{c: }
So [D] sadly, I [G] left them, in that [A7] old country [D] lane
I know that I [G] never shall [A7] see them a[D]gain
One was an [G] old man, the [A7] second a [D] maid
The third was a [G] young boy who [A7] smiled as he [D] said [D7]
{c: }
With the [G] wind in the [D] willows and the [G] birds in the [D] sky,
There’s a [G] bright sun to [D] warm us where[G]ever we [A7] lie,
We [D] have bread and [G] fishes and a [A7] jug of red [D] wine
To [G] share on our journey with [A7] all of man[D]kind.
