[C#] [Am]
Get down, get down, little Henry Lee
And stay all [Dm] night with me
You won't find a girl in this damn world
That will compare [Am] with [G] me
The wind did howl, the wind did blow
[C]
[Am] Like [Dm] a little bird that looked down on [Am] Henry Lee
I can't get down, and I won't get down
And stay all night [Dm] with me
But the girl I have in that merry green land
I love her better [Am] than thee
[G] And the wind did howl, and the wind did blow
[C] La la la la la, [Am] la la la la lee
[Dm] A little bird that looked down on [Am] Henry Lee
She leaned herself against a fence
Just for a kiss [Dm] or two
And with [D] a little penknife held in her hand
Well, she plugged him through and through
[G] And the wind did howl, and the wind did blow
[C] La la la la la, [Am] la la la la lee
[Dm] A little bird that looked down on Henry [Am] Lee
Come take him by his lily white hands
Come take him by [Dm] his feet
And throw him in this deep, deep well
That's more than one [Am] hundred feet
[G] And the wind did howl, and the wind did blow
[C] La la la la la, [Am] la la la la lee
[Dm] A little bird that looked down on Henry [Am] Lee
Lie there, lie there, little Henry Lee
Till the flesh drops [Dm] from your bones
For the girl you have in that merry green land
Can wait forever for you to [Am] come home
[G] And the wind did howl, and the wind did blow
[C] La la la [Am] la la, la la la la lee
[Dm] A little bird that looked down on [Am] Henry [C] Lee
La la la la la, [Am] la la la la lee
[Dm] A little bird that looked down on Henry [Am] Lee
[C] La la la la, [Am] la la la la lee
[Dm] A little bird that looked down on Henry [Am] [C] Lee
La la la la [Am] la, la la la la lee
[Dm] a little earth from down on their campaign
[Am]
