The Holly And The Ivy by Kate Rusby







     The Holly And The Ivy 








       C     G       C
Oh the Holly and the Ivy,
C                        G
When they were both full grown,
   C                      F
of all the trees that are in the wood,
    C     G         C
the Holly bears the crown.

//      Chorus  //

    C      G      C
The rising of the sun,
        C              G
and the running of the deer,
    C       C7     F
the playing of the merry organ,
      C           G      C
sweet singing all in the choir.
(         C       G          C     )
(Oh sweet signing all in the choir.)

 // End of Chorus //

    C     G         C
The holly bears the blossom,
   C                 G
As white as the lily flower,
    C               F
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
   C      G     C
To be our sweet Saviour.

// Chorus //

    C     G       C
The holly bears a berry,
   C          G
As red as any blood,
    C               F
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
   C       G       C
To do poor sinners good:

// Chorus //

    C     G       C
The holly bears a prickle,
   C            G
As sharp as any thorn,
    C               F
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
   C         G          C
On Christmas day in the morn.

// Chorus //

    C     G       C
The holly bears a bark,
   C             G
As bitter as any gall,
    C               F
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
    C  G         C
For to redeem us all:

// Final Chorus //

    C      G      C
The rising of the sun,
        C              G
and the running of the deer,
    C       C7     F
the playing of the merry organ,
      C           G      C
sweet singing all in the choir.
(         C       G          C     )
(Oh sweet signing all in the choir.)
