Intro: G D 
 
 
 
Bb F Cadd9 G 
Have you seen the Jack-in-the-Green? 
Bb F G 
-With his long tail hanging down. 
Bb F Cadd9 G 
He quietly sits under every tree 
Bb F G 
In the folds of his velvet gown. 
Bb F Cadd9 G 
He drinks from the empty acorn cup 
Bb F G 
The dew that dawn sweetly bestows. 
Bb F Cadd9 G 
And he taps his cane upon the ground- 
Bb F G 
Signal the snow drops, it‘s time to grow. 
 
G D 
 
Bb F Cadd9 G 
It‘s no fun being Jack-in-the-Green: 
Bb F G 
No place to dance, no time for song. 
Bb F Cadd9 G 
He wears the colours of the summer soldier; 
Bb F G 
Carries the green flag all winter long. 
 
 
G D 
 
Am D G 
Jack, do you ever sleep-does the green still run in your heart? 
Am D G 
or will these changing times, motorways, powerlines, keep us apart? 
D G 
Well, I don‘t think so. 
D G 
I saw some grass growing through the pavement today. 
 
 
(a verse with humming) 
 
Bb F Cadd9 G 
The Rowan, the Oak, and the Holly tree 
Bb F G 
Are the changes left for him to groom. 
 
G D 
 
Bb F Cadd9 G 
Each blade of grass whispers, "Jack-in-the-Green." 
Bb F G 
"Oh Jack, please help me through my winters night." 
Bb F Cadd9 G 
And-"We are the berries the on the Holly tree: 
Bb F G 
Oh, the Mistle Thrust is coming, Jack, put out the light."
