CAPO 3
 

Bm                                        Bm7
Good morning Weathercock: How did you fare last night?
A                                    G                 Bm
Did the cold wind bite you, did you face up to the fright
 G    A   Bm                            Bm7
When the leaves spin from October and whip around your tail?
 A                                     G                  Bm
Did you shake from the blast, did you shiver through the gale?

Bm A

 D     Bm             G             D D(SUS4)
Give us direction; the best of goodwill
Em        A7          G         (A)
Put us in touch with fair winds.

Sing to us softly, hum evening's song
 A7                 C           G
Tell us what the blacksmith has done for you.
 

        Bm                             Bm7
Do you simply reflect changes in the patterns of the sky,
          A                                    G                 Bm
Or is it true to say the weather heeds the twinkle in your eye?
G    A  Bm                             Bm7
Do you fight the rush of winter; do you hold snowflakes at bay?
       A                                     G                  Bm
Do you lift the dawn sun from the fields and help him on his way?
