Mary and the little lamb
D A
1. Mary had a little lamb, its fleece was white
as snow,
D
and
everywhere that Mary went the lamb was sure to go.
D A
It followed her most every day
and it made the people laugh,
D A
you'd
never see it work or play, and you'd never see it at the grass.
G A
Oh, there'll be loving a long, long time from
now,
D Bm
but it'll be too late for him.
G A
Oh, there'll be kissing and hugging and holding tight,
D G
but it'll be too late for him.
+ Bm - G - D ~
D A
2. Now people tried to talk to him, but it never made no sense,
D
'cause just
as they were getting clue it'd be jumping another fence.
D
A
It'd follow in her footsteps and
everywhere she went,
D
A
it'd
see him in there with her, but you'd never be seeing him.
+ CHORUS
+ G - A - D
- Bm - G - Bm - G - D ~
D A
3. Now, one dark day a big storm came, and it blew Mary's house away,
D
all
the walls had vanished and there was nowhere for Mary to stay.
D A
She cried and cried and looked
around, but everything was gone,
D A
except
for that one little lamb, he was still holding on.
G A
Oh, there'll be loving a long, long time from
now,
D G
but there'll be no one more happy
than him,
Em
A
'cause every night when the moon shines bright,
D G
she'll be cuddling up with him.
Em
A
There'll be loving a long, long time from now,
D
G
but there'll be no one more happy
than him,
Em A
'cause every night when the stars shine bright,
D G
she'll be snuggling up with him.
+ Em - A - D ....
