There must be some reason to remember this season.
But whatever it is, I've forgot.

[D] [E] This song was composed for many's [G] the year.
[D]
I've travelled through England, [A] onwards, sea [D] and bay.
I had been so [A] reduced and
[B] with all this [G] great store.
[D] And I never blazed Spencer, the one [Am]
rover [D] no more.
In the auctioneer's other room, with [A] Ivy [G] I went.

By the foot of [A] yon mountain, [F#m] he [C#]

[D]
For bread and cold water I [A] can get [D] any day.
With night fast approaching, I drew out [G] sovereign's bright.

But I grabbed [A]
a scion and [B]
wised him [G] the best.

around him, told him what [G] they'd done.
