Intro]
Bbm Fm Gb Fm

[Verse 1]
      Bbm              Fm
Well time, she did as time, she does
      Gb             Fm
She passed along her way
     Bbm                   Fm
And dawn she crept like a frightened girl
      Gb                   Fm
Out from the night time’s sway
    Bbm           Fm
But in the merry month of May
    Gb              Fm
A solemn fast does lurk
      Bbm                  Fm
For spring, it sprung as spring, it does
    Fm7             Ab   Bbm
And put the bees to work

Fm Gb Fm Bbm

[Verse 2]
     Bbm
And work they must
     Fm
And work they shall
    Gb                Fm
For all the things to grow
    Bbm                Fm
For if they don’t, as time, she knows
        Gb            Fm
They’d wither on the bough
    Bbm                Fm
And what a shame such things would be
    Gb               Fm
No wondrous wine for you and me
   Bbm             Fm
No cider too, nor mead nor soup
    Fm7            Ab   Bbm
For us to all make merry

Fm Gb Fm Bbm

[Verse 3]
   Bbm               Fm
So rot, ferment and decompose
   Gb                 Fm
So all the things can grow
    Bbm          Fm
Or wallow in a drinkless world
    Gb             Fm
And wither on the bough


[Bridge]
    Bbm
Oh, what a dusty burden
     Fm
That nectar and that pollen
     Bbm
Like Atlas with the heavens
       Cm
On the back of his head
    Bbm
And what if they should falter
     Fm
And shrug their little shoulders?
      Fm7                         Ab   Bbm
Well, time, she’d pass all the same
