Gordon Lightfoot - Songs The Minstrel Sang


CAPO: 4th Fret




[INTRO:] Dm  F  G  A7  Dm  F  G  A7

[VERSE 1:]
     Dm               F
It's almost over it's almost done
        G                      A7
And you can't put the blame on anyone
     Dm                   F
It's almost easy and it's almost fun
    G                        A7
Did you get caught with your britches on

[CHORUS:]
Asus4               Dm
Hi derry-day in the month of May
        F                 C
Was the song the minstrel sang
Gm             Dm
To the good of Robin Hood
     A7                 Dm    G   Dm   G
Maid Marian and all the gang


[VERSE 2:]
    Dm                   F
His aim was mean and his shot was clean
        G                         A7
And his suit was the sheen of the evergreen
    Dm                F
The folks he knew had naught to fear
         G                            A7
When the sheriff was there, they were over here


[CHORUS:]
Asus4                Dm
Hi derry-doon in the month of June
        F                 C
Was the song the minstrel sung
Gm             Dm
To the good of Robin Hood's
     A7                  Dm    G   Dm   G    Dm    G   Dm   G
Good name and a place to run


[VERSE 3:]
   Dm                     F
He loved strong ale and a rundown jail
        G                        A7
Was the kind of a scene where he never failed
      Dm                F
There was no man on the sea or land
          G                      A7
Who could get Maid Marian on the trail


[CHORUS:]
Asus4               Dm
Hi derry-day in the month of May
        F                 C
Was the song the minstrel sang
Gm             Dm
To the good of Robin Hood
     A7                 Dm
Maid Marian and all the gang


[INSTRUMENTAL:] Dm  G  Dm   A7  Dm  F  G  A7   Dm  F  G  A7
                Asus4   Dm   F   C   Gm   Dm   A7  Dm   G   Dm   G


[VERSE 4:]
     Dm                F
It's almost over, it's almost done
        G                      A7
And you can't put the blame on Marion
    Dm                    F
She almost made it to the Friar's Gate
        G                          A7
But the old wooden bridge wouldn't elevate


[CHORUS:]
Asus4                Dm
Hi derry-doon in the month of June
        F                 C
Was the song the minstrel sung
Gm             Dm
To the good of Robin Hood's
     A7                  Dm    G   Dm   G    Dm    G   Dm   G
