Bread And Fishes

   C         F           G7          Em
As I went a-walking one morning in spring
  Am             Dm              G7          C
I met with some travelers in an old country lane
C          F            G7       Em
One was an old man the second a maid,
         Am           Dm            G7          C
And the third was a young boy who smiled as he said


[Chorus]
           F           C               F            C
We’ve the wind in the willows and the birds in the sky,
          F            C          F        G7
We've a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie,
    C              F            G7         Em
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine
    Am           Dm          G7         C
To share on our journey with all of mankind.


[Verse 2]
   C          F              G7           Em
I sat down beside them, the flowers all around,
       Am        Dm           G7           C
And we ate on a mantle spread out on the ground
      C           F            G7         Em
They told me of prophets and princes and kings
          Am          Dm           G7          C
And they spoke of the one God who knows everything


[Chorus]
           F           C               F            C
Like the wind in the willows and the birds in the sky,
          F            C          F        G7
We've a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie,
    C              F            G7         Em
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine
    Am           Dm          G7         C
To share on our journey with all of mankind.


[Verse 3]
   C             F             G7             Em
I asked them to tell me their name and their race
  Am         Dm            G7           C
So I might remember their kindness and grace.
C           F               G7     Em
My name is Joseph, this is Mary my wife
     Am          Dm             G7          C
And this is our young son, our pride and delight
     C          F              G7         Em
We travel the whole world, by land and by sea
    Am           Dm         G7             C
To tell all the people how they might be free


[Chorus]
           F           C               F            C
Like the wind in the willows and the birds in the sky,
          F            C          F        G7
We've a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie,
    C              F            G7         Em
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine
    Am           Dm          G7         C
To share on our journey with all of mankind.


[Verse 4]
 C        F               G7           Em
Sadly, I left them, in an old country lane
    Am             Dm          G7        C
For I knew that I never would see them again
C          F            G7       Em
One was an old man, the second a maid
         Am          Dm            G7           C
And the third was a young boy who smiled as he said


[Chorus]
           F           C               F            C
We’ve the wind in the willows and the birds in the sky,
          F            C          F        G7
We've a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie,
    C              F            G7         Em
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine
    Am           Dm          G7         C
To share on our journey with all of mankind.
