The Tinker

C G Am F it’s a tinker i Am , and a travellin’ man C G i follow the wind and the stars C G Am F if i’ve shoes on me feet , and an old crust to eat C G C i’m as happy as any by far C G Am F i’m as rich as a king when i lay down to dream C G on my pillow of sawdust or hay C G Am F and the friends that i make i would never forsake C G C and their kindness one day i’ll repay Chorus : F C so thank you for sharing the warmth of your fire C G and an ’oul cup of tea or two C C Am F and that warm feather bed , where i lay down my head C G C for making me welcome , thank you . C G Am F i’m a jack of all trades , and as sharp as a blade C G when it comes to the markets and fairs C G Am F mending ’oul pots and pans or whatever i can C G C not a penny i’d give for your cares Chorus Bridge : F C now the cold winds of winter can cut like a knife F C and the rain chills me deep to the bone F C but the warm summer breezes still blow in my mind F C and it’s them keeps me carryin’ on C G Am F when the cock crows the dawn , i’ll be already gone C G through the meadow that runs by the trees C G Am F i think nothing of time , for the world is all mine C G C i can come and can go as i please repeat Chorus twice
