Dsus2
Joseph was an old man, an old man was he
Em Bm11 Dsus2 Em
When he married Virgin Mary, the Queen of Galilee
Dsus2
As Mary and Joseph were walking one day
Em G6 Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em
To an orchard of cherry trees they chanced for to stray
Dsus2
And Mary said to Joseph, so meek and so mild
Em G6 Dsus2 Em
Pick me some cherries Joseph, for I am with child
Dsus2
But Joseph flew angry, so angry flew he
Em Bm11 Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Bm11 Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em
Let the father of your baby gather cherries for thee
[VERSE TWO]
Dsus2
When up spoke Lord Jesus, from in his mother's womb
Em G6 Dsus2 Em
Bow down low cherry trees bow down to the ground
Dsus2
And the cherry trees, they bowed down, bowed low to the ground
Em G6 Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em
And Mary gathered cherries while Joseph stood around
Dsus2
And Joseph took Mary all upon his right knee
Em Bm11 Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em
Come tell me pretty baby when your birthday shall be
Dsus2
On the fifth day of January my birthday shall be
Em G6 Dsus2 Em Dsus2 A Em
And the stars and the heavens shall all bow down to me
