The Devils Nine Questions Ukulele by Jean Ritchie

The Devils Nine Questions Ukulele chords by Jean Ritchie

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

  C         F     C
Now you must answer my questions nine.
C
Sing ninety nine and ninety
  C               F
Or you’re not God’s you’re one of mine
F                   C
And the crow flies over the white oak tree


C       F   C
What is higher than a tree?
C
Sing ninety nine and ninety
C            F
What is deeper than the sea?
F                   C
And the crow flies over the white oak tree

C        F   C
Heaven is higher than a tree.
C
Sing ninety nine and ninety
C              F
And love is deeper than the sea.
F                   C
And the crow flies over the white oak tree

C       F    C
What is whiter than the milk?
C
Sing ninety nine and ninety
C              F
And what is softer than the silk?
F                   C
And the crow flies over the white oak tree

C       F    C
Snow is whiter than the milk.
C
Sing ninety nine and ninety
C              F
And down is softer than the silk.
F                   C
And the crow flies over the white oak tree

C       F    C
What is louder than the horn?
C
Sing ninety nine and ninety
C             F
And what is sharper than a thorn?
F                   C
And the crow flies over the white oak tree

C        F    C
Thunder’s louder than the horn.
C
Sing ninety nine and ninety
C              F
And hunger’s sharper than a thorn.
F                   C
And the crow flies over the white oak tree

C        F    C
What is heavier than the lead?
C
Sing ninety nine and ninety
C              F
And what is better than the bread?
F                   C
And the crow flies over the white oak tree

C          F    C
Oh grief is heavier than the lead.
C
Sing ninety nine and ninety
C                F
God’s blessing's better than the bread.
F                   C
And the crow flies over the white oak tree


C            F     C
Now you have answered my questions nine.
С
Sing ninety nine and ninety
C                F
You’re one of God’s. You’re none of mine.
F                   C
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
