Henry Lee

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

   Am
1. Get down, get down, little Henry Lee
   A7                 
   And stay all night with me
   Dm
   You won't find a girl in this damn world
   G        Am
   That will compare with me

   E                     G
R: And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
   C
   La la la la la
   Am
   La la la la lee
   Dm                        C - Am
   A little bird lit down on Henry Lee

2. 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

R: And the wind did howl...

3. 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

R: And the wind did howl...

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

R: And the wind did howl...

5. 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

R: And the wind did howl...
