I wish I [Dm] had [D] a [G] jar [Am] of feathers only [Dm] for a night
[G]
In a valley [C] ground [B] I would [Dm] swim over
[G] The [Am] deepest ocean, deepest [Dm] ocean [G] to be [C] by yourself
[F] [C] [F] But the sea [C] is wide my love [Am] [Dm] and I can't [G] swim over
[Em] And [G]
neither [Am] have [Dm] I [G] wings to fly
[Am] Oh I wish I [Dm] could find [G]
some honey [Am]-pumpkin
To ferry [Dm] me away to [G] my true love and [C] I
[D]
[C] [Am] My child [Dm] growing days
[G] bring back sad [Am] reflections
To happy [Dm] times [G] spent so [C] long ago
[Em] My [Dm] boyhood friends [G] and my own [Am] relations
How I've grown [Dm] fast now
[G] like the [C] mountain stone
Well [F] I've spent [C] my days
[Am] in [Dm] the [G] lands of swarming
I've sunk to the [Am] grass to [Dm] get my [G] best treat
[C] Oh to [Dm] be home now [G] in Jerry's [Am] Burrows
On the long road [Dm] down
[G] to young South [C] Sea
[Am] [Dm] And [G] I'll keep coming
It is [Am] reported on Marble [Dm] Stone's earth
[G] As black as ink [C] with [Am] [Dm] gold and silver
[G] I did [Am] support her but I'll sing no [Dm] more now
[A]
[G] Till I [C] get dreamy
I'm [F] drunk [C] today [Am] and [Dm] I'm [G] running sober
[Am] Last I roamed her [Dm] from town [G] to town
Oh but [Dm] I am sick now [G] and my days [Am] are numb
So come on you [Dm] young man now
[G]
Now lay [C] me [F] down
[Fm] [C]
