Intro: 

      C                     C 
I'll tell thee a tale, now listen to me 
        F            C 
With a hey, ho, the wind and the rain 
     C                    C 
But merry or sad, which shall it be? 
         F               C 
For the rain, it raineth every day 


  C 
When that I was a little tiny boy 
        C 
With a hey, ho, the wind and the rain, 
   C 
A foolish thing was but a toy 
         F              C 
For the rain it raineth every day 

      C 
And when I came to man's estate 
        C 
With a hey, ho, the wind and the rain 
          C 
'gainst knaves and thieves men shut their gate 
         F              C 
For the rain it raineth every day 

      C 
And when I came, alas, to wive 
        C 
With a hey, ho, the wind and the rain 
      C 
But swaggering I couldn't thrive 
         F              C 
For the rain it raineth every day

      C 
But when I came unto my beds 
        C 
With a hey, ho, the wind and the rain 
       C 
While toss-pots still had drunken heads 
         F              G 
For the rain it raineth every day

A great while ago the world begun 
        F            C 
With a hey, ho, the wind and the rain 
      C                C 
But that is all, our play is done 
             F                 G 
And we'll strive to please you every day 
             F                 C 
And we'll strive to please you every day
