Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Henry Lee: chords

Am                         Am
Get down, get down, little Henry Lee
    Am                  Dm
And stay all night with me
    Dm                    Dm
You won't find a girl, in this damn world
     Dm                Am
That will compare with me

Chorus:
         G                     G7
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
 C               Am
La la la la la, La la la la lee
   Dm                           Am   Am
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee

I can't get down and I won't get down
And stay all night with thee
For the girl I have in that merry green land
I love far better than thee

Chorus

She leaned herself against a fence
Just for a kiss or two
And with a little pen-knife held in her hand
She plugged him through and through

Chorus:
And the wind did roar and the wind did moan
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee

Come take him by his lily-white hands
Come take him by his feet
And throw him in this deep deep well
Which is more than one hundred feet

Chorus:
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee

Lie there, lie there, little Henry Lee
Till the flesh drops from your bones
For the girl you have in that merry green land
Can wait forever for you to come home

Chorus:
And the wind did howl and the wind did moan
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
