The Moss Uke tab by Cosmo Sheldrake (Baritone Chords)

[Verse]

A                       B
Legend has it that the moss grows on
Gbm                    Ab
The north side of the trees
Dbm                                           B
Well, legend has it that when the rain comes down
Gbm                        Abm
All the worms come up to breathe

Dbm                          B         Dbm
Well, legend has it when the sunbeams come
        Gbm                                Ab
All the plants, they eat them with their leaves
Dbm            E                          B
Well, legend has it that the world spins round
      A             Ab      Dbm
On an axis of 23 degrees

[Chorus]
Dbm        
But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon?
        Gbm
Or the cow that hopped the planets while straddling a spoon
   A
Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune
    E                                     Ab
And swapped her songs with swallows while riding on a broom

      Dbm
Well, we can all learn things, both many and a-few
          Gbm
From that old hunched-up woman who lived inside a shoe
       A
Or the girl that sang by day and by night she ate tear soup
       E                             Ab
Or the man who drank too much and he got the brewers’ droop


[Bridge]
     A                            Dbm           Ab
Now listen, all ye fair maids, to how the moral goes
       Dbm             Ab
Nobody knew and nobody knows
        Dbm                      B       Gbm
How the Pobble was robbed of his twice five toes
           Dbm                A        Ab
Or how the Dong came to own a luminous nose

           Dbm              A        B               E
Or how the Jumblies went to sea in a sieve that they rowed
    B                                           Ab
And came to shore by the Chankly Bore where the Bong-trees grow
          Dbm                       E  
Where the Jabberwocky’s small green tentacles do flow
        A               Dbm
And the Quangle Wangle plays in the rain and the snow
