The Bear And The Maiden Fair

	  		
VERSE 1: 

G                        C 
A bear there was, a bear a bear 

G                         D 
All black and brown and covered in hair 

G                         C 
Three boys, a goat, and a dancing bear 

Am                       D 
They danced and spun up to the fair 

G                          C 
Oh! Sweet she was, and pure and fair 

G                          D 
The maid with honey up in her hair 

G                           C 
He smelled her all on the summer air 

Am                        C        D 
The maid with honey up in her hair 



Em              C          Em        C 
From there, to here, from here to there 

        G            D           C 
All black and brown and covered in hair 

Em          C            Em        C 
Smelt that girl on the summer air 

G           D             G 
The bear, the bear, and the maiden fair 


VERSE 2 (same chords as first half of Verse 1): 

Oh I'm a maid and I'm pure and fair 
I'll never dance with a hairy bear 
I called the knight, but you're a bear 
All black and brown and covered in hair 

 

From there to here, from here to there 
All black and brown and covered in hair 
Smelt that girl on the summer air 
The bear, the bear, and the maiden fair
