    C         F   C
The holly and the ivy,

                   F    C
When they are both full grown,

   G   Am             C      G
Of all trees that are in the wood,

    C     G         C
The holly bears the crown

       C         F   C
O, the rising of the sun,

                   F   C
And the running of the deer

    G       Am     C     G
The playing of the merry organ,

C             G      C
Sweet singing in the choir.

    C           F C
The holly bears a blossom,

              F  C
As white as lily flow'r,

    G    Am         C     G
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,

C         G        C
To be our dear Saviour

    C         F   C
The holly bears a berry,

             F    C
As red as any blood,

      G       Am     C     G
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,

    C     G         C
To do poor sinners good

       C         F   C
O, the rising of the sun,

                   F   C
And the running of the deer

    G       Am     C     G
The playing of the merry organ,

C             G      C
Sweet singing in the choir.

    C         F   C
The holly bears a prickle,

              F    C
As sharp as any thorn,

     G       Am     C     G
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,

       C     G         C
On Christmas Day in the morn

       C         F   C
O, the rising of the sun,

                   F   C
And the running of the deer

    G       Am     C     G
The playing of the merry organ,

C             G      C
Sweet singing in the choir.

    C         F   C
The holly bears a bark,

              F    C
As bitter as the gall,

     G       Am     C     G
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,

    C     G         C
For to redeem us all

       C         F   C
O, the rising of the sun,

                   F   C
And the running of the deer

    G       Am     C     G
The playing of the merry organ,

C             G      C
Sweet singing in the choir.

    C         F   C
The holly and the ivy,

                   F    C
When they are both full grown,

   G   Am             C      G
Of all trees that are in the wood,

    C     G         C
The holly bears the crown
