_ _ [Am] We have been [G] wandering all this night, [Am] the better part [Em] of the day,
[G] _ [Am] And every turn [Gm] back home _ [A] again, [C] We will bring you [G] a branch of May,
_ [Am] A branch of May [G] we do bring [Am] you, And at your door [G] we _ stand.
[Am] It is but a spell, [G] but it's well set about, [A] _
[C] By the [G] work of God's own hand.
[Am] The hedges and the fields [G] are glowing so green, [Am] As green as grass [G] can be,
_ [Am] Our Heavenly [G] Father _ watereth [A] them, [C] With his [G] heavenly juice so _ sweet.
[Am] _ Arise, arise, [G] you pretty fair maids, [Am] And take our [G] Maybush in,
_ [Am] For if that is [G] gone before tomorrow _ [Am] morn, You [C] might say [G] we had brought you none.
_ [Am] I've got a little purse [G] in my pocket, [Am] Tied up with a silken [G] _ string,
_ [Am] And all that it lacks [G] is a few small _ [A] pens, For [C] to line [G] it well _ within.
_ [Am] Our song is done, [G] we must be gone, [Am] No longer can [G] we _ stay.
[Am] God bless you all, [G] both great and [Am] small, [C] And we wish [G] you a joyful _ [A] May.
