Jack-in-the-green taby ukulele według Jethro Tull

Intro: A       E

C       G        D            A
Have you seen the Jack-in-the-Green?
 C       G                 A
-With his long tail hanging down.
C         G          D     A
He quietly sits under every tree
C     G                   A
In the folds of his velvet gown.
C        G              D     A
He drinks from the empty acorn cup
C           G              A
The dew that dawn sweetly bestows.
C     G             D        A
And he taps his cane upon the ground-
C         G                        A
Signal the snow drops, it's time to grow.

A      E

C      G         D           A
It's no fun being Jack-in-the-Green:
C          G                  A
No place to dance, no time for song.
C           G              D      A
He wears the colours of the summer soldier;
C          G                     A
Carries the green flag all winter long.


A     E

Bm                      E                        A
Jack, do you ever sleep-does the green still run in your heart?
Bm                            E                      A
or will these changing times, motorways, powerlines, keep us apart?
E             A
Well, I don't think so.
E                         A
I saw some grass growing through the pavement today.



C             G            D     A
The Rowan, the Oak, and the Holly tree
C              G               A
Are the changes left for him to groom.

A      E

C            G                D           A
Each blade of grass whispers, "Jack-in-the-Green."
C               G                          A
"Oh Jack, please help me through my winters night."
C              G                  D     A
And-"We are the berries the on the Holly tree:
C             G                                   A
Oh, the Mistle Thrust is coming, Jack, put out the light."
