[verse]
Am F Am
Green grows the holly
Am F Am
And so does the ivy
Am F C
Though the winter winds blow
D
Never so high

G D G
Green grows the holly
Am F Am
Gay are the flowers
Am F Am
Hedgerows and the ploughhands
F C
The days grow long
D
Longer in the sun
G D G
So soft fall the showers
F C F C F C F C
mmmmm [instumental]

[verse]
Am F Am
Full gold the harvest
Am F Am
And grain for your labor
F C
With God must work
D
For daily bread

G D G
Or else man will starve
Am F Am
Fast fall the shed leaves
Am F Am
Russet and yellow
F C
But resting buds
D
Are smug and safe
G D G F C F C
Where swu-ung the dead leaves
F C F C F C F C
Swung the dead leaves

[solo]
Am F Am

[verse]
Am F Am
Green grows the holly
Am F Am
And so does the ivy
F C D
The God of life can never die
G D G
And hope says the holly

So does the ivy
