Chords for The Chieftains - Wren in the Furze

_ _ _ The wren, oh the wren, he's the king of all birds
Sometimes even say he got caught in the fur
So it's up with the kettle and it's down with the pan
Won't you give us a penny for to bury the wren?
Hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap, diddly-dap-a-doot-a-dap
Dootin' daddin' diddly-dap-a-dootin' diddly-long
Hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap, diddly-dap-a-dootin' diddly-long
Hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap, diddly-dap-a-dootin' diddly-long
_ Well it's Christmas time, that's why we're here
Please be good enough to give us an ear
For we'll sing and we'll [G] dance if you give us a chance
And we won't be coming back for [C] another whole year
Hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap, diddly-dap-a-dootin' diddly-long
Hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap, diddly-dap-a-dootin' diddly-long
_ We'll [A]
play caribou, cause they're [G] real hot stuff
We'll play the mason's apron and a pinch of stuff
John Maroney's jig and the Donny [Bb] Gall reel
Music [G] made to put a spring in your heel
[C] Hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap, diddly-dap-a-dootin' diddly-long
Hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap, diddly-dap-a-dootin' diddly-long
If _ there's a drink in [Ab] the house, would it make itself known?
[G] Before I sing a song, call the banks of the loan
A drink with blue brimacation in it for me
Pour a dried Coke, then I sing like a linnet
[C] Hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap, hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap
Diddly-dap-a-dootin' diddly-long
Hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap, hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap
Diddly-dap-a-dootin' diddly-long
Oh [N] please give us something for the little birds' wake
A big lump of pudding or some Christmas cake
A fistful of goose and a hot cup of tea
And then we'll all be going on our [C] way
Hoppin' boppin' diddly-dap, diddly-dap-a-dootin' _ diddly-long
Oh _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] the Wren, oh the Wren, [Ab] he's the king of all birds
And since [N] Stephen's day he got caught in the fur
So it's up with the kettle and it's down with the pan
Won't you give us a penny for to bury the [C] rant?
