There were three men came out of the west
D C Am G Am A5 Am A5Their fortunes for to try
And these three men made a solemn vow
D C Am G Am A5 Am A5John Barleycorn must die
C Am Am7 AmThey've plowed, they've sown, the've harrowed him in
Threw clods upon his head
Dm Am C G Am A5 Am A5And these three men were satisfied
D C Am G Am A5 Am A5John Barleycorn was dead
D C G Am A5 Am A5D C G Am A5 Am A5
They let him lie for a very long time
D C Am G Am A5 Am A5Till the rains from heaven did fall
D Am C G Am A5 Am A5And little Sir John sprung up his head
And so amazed them all
C Am Am7 AmThey let him stand 'til mid summer's day
C D Esus4 E Esus4 E'til he looked both pale and worn
And little Sir John's grown a long, long beard
D C Am G Am A5 Am A5And so become a man
D C G Am A5 Am A5
D Am C G Am A5 Am A5
They've hired men with scythes so sharp
To cut him off at the knee
D Am C G Am A5 Am A5They rolled him and tied him by the waist
D C Am G Am A5 Am A5Serving him most barbarously
They've hired men with sharp pitch forks
C D Esus4 E Esus4 EWho pricked him to the heart...
Dm Am C G Am A5 Am A5And the loader he has served him worse than that
For he's bound him to the cart
D Am C G Am A5 Am A5
They've wheeled him around and around in the field
D C Am G Am A5 Am A5'til they came onto a barn
And there they made a solemn oath
D C Am G Am A5 Am A5On poor John Barleycorn
C Am Am7 AmThey've hired men with the crab tree sticks
to cut him skin from bone
Dm Am C G Am A5 Am A5And the miller he has served him worse than that
D C Am G Am A5 Am A5For he's ground him between two stones
D C G Am A5 Am A5D C G Am A5 Am A5
And little Sir John and the nut brown bowl
D C Am G Am A5 Am A5And he's brandy in the glass
D Am C G Am A5 Am A5And little Sir John and the nut brown bowl
Proved the strongest man at last
C Am Am7 AmThe huntsman, he can't hunt the fox
C D Esus4 E Esus4 ENor so loudly blow his horn
And the Tinker he can't mend kettle nor pots
D Am G A5Without a little Barlycorn
