Misc Christmas - The Friendly Beasts Chords & Tabs

The Friendly Beasts
-Traditional

[D] Jesus our saviour [A] kind and [D] good
Was [D] humbly born in a [G] stable of [A] wood
And the [D] friendly [G] beasts a[A]round Him [F#m] stood
[D] Jesus our saviour [A] kind and [D] good

"I" said the donkey shaggy and brown
"I carried His mother up hill and down
I carried her safely to Bethlehem town"
"I" said the donkey shaggy and brown

"I" said the cow all white and red
"I gave Him my manger for a bed
I gave Him my hay for to pillow His head
"I" said the cow all white and red

"I" said the sheep with the curly horn
"I gave Him my blanket for a warm
And he wore my coat on that Christmas morn
"I" said the sheep with the curly horn

"I" said the dove from the rafters high
"I cooed Him to sleep so He would not cry
We cooed Him to sleep my mate and I
"I" said the dove from the rafters high

"I" said the camel all yellow and black
"Over the desert upon my back
I brought Him a gift in the wise men's pack
"I" said the camel all yellow and black

Thus every beast remembering it well
In the stable dark was so proud to tell
Of the gifts they gave Emmanuel
the gifts they gave Emmanuel
