Steeleye Span – Marigold - Harvest Home (Guitar Solo Tab)

G            D              A
When the marigold no longer blooms,

            C                G
When summer sun is turned to gloom,

                        D
See the forecast winter snow,

C                             A
See the evergreen that lonely grows.

G                 D   A
Move close to the fireplace,

            C
Neglect the garden,

               A
See the ground harden,

             Em7
At a ghostly place.

    G             D             A
The golden summer sun is silver now,

              C               G
The fruit has fallen from the bough,

                             D
The season moves to chestnut time,

C                                  A
Toffee apples, treacle, and mulled wine.

G                   D       A
Quilts and furs and woolens gay,

          C
You wrap around you,

                A
But the cold confounds you,

             Em7
On an autumn day.

G                    D                 A
Stout and strong the walls of home and hearth,

             C                 G
The curtains drawn against the draft,

                                   D
The rake has reaped, the blade has mown,

C                                  A
Nights draw in to call the harvest home.

    G          D        A
The quiet of a heart at rest,

          C
In peace abounded,

           A
By love surrounded,

                 Em7
Here the home is blest.

D        A        G       D
Come, ye thankful people, come!

D         A       G       D
Raise the song of harvest home!

D      Em     A        D
All be safely gathered in,

D   E   A  D   A      E A
Ere the winter storms begin.

A        A      D    A  D
God, our Maker, doth provide,

D       D        G  D  G
For our wants to be supplied.

G        Em       A       D
Come, ye thankful people, come,

G         D       D  A    D
Raise the song of harvest home,

G         D       D  A    D
Raise the song of harvest home.
