Cherry Tree Carol

This is the chord progression for Cherry Tree Carol by Judy Collins great song to sing around Christmas. I couldn’t find any other chords on here that appeared to be correct so I’ve done it myself Capo is on the 5th fret and I think it sounds nice if you’re playing it alone to keep your ring and pinkie fingers on the E and B string third fret at all times! Hope you enjoy Merry Christmas!

Joseph and Mary walked through an orchard green There were berries and cherries as thick as might be seen There were berries and cherries as thick as might be seen. Oh then bespoke Mary with words meek and mild Pluck me one cherry Joseph for I am with child Pluck me one cherry Joseph for I am with child. Oh then bespoke Joseph with answer most unkind Let him pluck thee a cherry that brought thee with child Let him pluck thee a cherry that brought thee with child. Oh then bespoke the baby within his mothers womb Bow down the tallest tree that my mother may have some Bow down then the tallest tree for my mother to have some. Then bow down the tallest tree unto his mothers hand She cried; ’see Joseph I have cherries at command’ Then she cried; ’see Joseph I have cherries at command.’ Then Mary plucked a cherry as red as any blood Then Mary she went over all with her heavy load Then Mary went over all with her heavy load. As Joseph was a-walking he heard an angel sing This night shall be born on earth our heavenly king This night there shall be born on earth our heavenly king. [Instrumental] . Then Mary took her young son and set him on her knee Saying “dearest son tell me just how this world shall be” Saying “dearest son tell me just how this world shall be.” “Oh I shall be as dead mother as the stones are in the wall” “Oh the stones in the street mother shall sorrow for me all” “Oh the stones in the street mother shall sorrow for me all.” “On easter day dear mother my rising up shall be” “Oh the sun and the moon mother shall both arise with me” “Oh the sun and the moon mother shall both arise with me.” [Outro]
