16[Am]Yew that is old, in churchyard mould, he breedeth a mighty bow
17Alder for shoes do wise men choose, and Beech for cups also

19[FM7/C]Back you must speed for all that you need to [G]Oak, and Ash, and Thorn

30[Am]Elm, she hates mankind and waits, til every gust be laid,
31To [FM7/C]drop a limb on the head of him that [G]anyway trusts her shade,

33He'll [FM7/C]take no wrong when he lyeth along 'neath [G]Oak, and Ash, and Thorn

44Oh, [Am]do not tell the priest our plight, for he would call it a sin,
45But [Am]we've been out in the woods all night, a-conjuring summer in,
