This next song is from Blackpool Taverners, very close to home now.
In our last LP we recorded a song called Ringmo, this one's called Bread and Fishes.
It's all about the legend that Jesus, Joseph and Mary actually were on a pilgrimage in England
and on their way sort of shelved out their bread, fish and wine to anyone in the way.
Now we're led to believe that Alan Bell was one of these lucky guys who happened to be there.
And that's what the song's all about.
[Ab] Very nice.

I was [Ab] a-walking one [Bb] morning [Eb] spring
[Cm] I met with [Ab] some travellers [Bb] down an old [Eb] country lane
One was [Ab] an old man, [Bb] the second [Eb] a maid
[Cm] The third [Ab] was a young boy [Bb] who smiled as [Eb] he said
[Ab] With the wind [Eb] in the willows [Ab] and stars in [Eb] the sky
[Ab] There's a bright sun [Eb] to warm us [Ab] wherever [Bb] we lie
[Eb] We have bread [Ab] and fishes [Bb] and a jug of [Eb] red [Cm] wine
They're shared on [Bb] a journey with all [Eb] of mankind
So I sat down [Ab] beside them with [Bb] the cave [Eb]-parts around
[Cm] And we ate from [Ab] a mantle [Eb]
spread out on the ground
It told me [Ab] of peoples, [Bb] prophets [Eb] and kings
[Cm] And all of [Ab] the one God [Bb] who knew [Eb] everything
[Ab] With the wind in [Eb] the willows [Ab] and the stars in the [Eb] sky
[Ab] There's a bright sun [Eb] to warm us [Ab] wherever
[Bb] we lie
[Eb] We have bread [Ab] and fishes [Bb] and a jug of [Eb] red wine
[Cm] They're shared on [Bb] a journey with all of [Eb] mankind
So I asked them to [Ab] tell me [Bb] their names and [Eb] their race
[Cm] That I might [Ab] remember [Bb] their kindness [Eb] and grace
My name it [Ab] is Joseph, this [Bb] is Vinnie, [Eb] my wife
[Cm] And this is [Ab] our young son [Bb] who is our [Eb] dear Lai
[Ab] With the wind in [Eb] the willows [Ab] and the stars in [Eb] the sky
[Ab] There's a bright sun [Eb] to warm us [Ab] wherever
[Bb] we lie
[Eb] We have [Ab] bread and fishes [Bb] and a jug [Eb] of red wine
[Cm] They're shared on [Bb] a journey with all [Eb] of mankind
We're travelling [Ab] to Glasgow, [Bb] to [Eb] England's green [Cm] lakes
To hear of [Ab] Metropolis, [Bb] to hear of [Eb] each place
Travel [Ab] the wide world, [Bb] through the land [Eb] and the sea
[Cm] To tell all [Ab] the people [Bb] how big [Eb] and big we're big
With [Ab] the wind in [Eb] the willows [Ab] and the birds [Eb] in the sky
There's [Ab] a bright sun [Eb] to warm us [Ab] wherever [Bb] we lie
[Eb] We have bread [Ab] and fishes [Eb] and a [Bb] jug of [Eb] red [Bb] wine
[Cm] They're shared [Bb] on a journey with all of [Eb] mankind
So sadly [Ab] I left them [Bb] in the tall [Eb] country lane
[Cm] I know that I [Ab] never shall [Bb]
see them [Eb] again
One [Ab] was a low [Bb]-bound, a second [Eb] a maid
[Cm] The third was [Ab] a young boy [Bb] who smiled [Eb] as he said
With [Ab] the wind in [Eb] the willows [Ab] and the birds [Eb] in the sky
There's [Ab] a bright sun [Eb] to warm us [Ab] wherever
[Bb] we lie
[Eb] We have bread [Ab] and fishes [Bb] and a jug of [Eb] red wine
