Capo 5 20 YEARS ALBUM
Capo 3 CHRISTMAS ALBUM

Em RIFF INTRO
 
D(sus2)
       Dm            C                   G                  D
Through long December nights we talk in words of rain and snow
        Dm                     C              G               D
while you,through chattering teeth,reply and curse us as you go.
   Em          B7                      C         D       G
Why not spare a throught this day for those who have no flame
  C            D        G          C
To warm their bones at Christmas time?
              D                    Em RIFF
Say Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow
 
 

       Dm            C                   G                 D
Now as the last broad oak leaf falls,we beg:consider this---
 Dm                           C                   G                 D
there's some who have no coin to save for turkey,wine or gifts.
    Em          B7                      C         D       G
No children's laughter round the fire,no family left to know
 C         D         G          C
So lend a warm and a helping hand---
               D                  Em RIFF
say Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow.

Interval: Missing

N.C
As holly pricks and ivy clings
your fate is none to clear
The Lord may find you wanting,let your good fortune disappear
All homey comforts blown away and all that's left to show
is to share your joy at Christmas time
               D                  Em RIFF
with Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow.
