Candlemass Eve Chords

(ver. 1)
Kate Rusby
C# (Fm) G# F# G# x 4

C#           (Fm) G# F#     G#
Down with the rosemary and bay,
C#            F#    G#
Down with the mistletoe,
C#         Fm     F#     G#
Instead of holly, now up-raise
    C#      F#        G#    
The greener box, to show
    F#      G#       C#
The greener box to show.

C#      (Fm) G# F#     G#
The holly hitherto did sway,
    C#      F#   G#
Let box now domineer,
C#        Fm      F#     G#
Until the dancing Easter day,
   C#       F#   G#
On Easter's eve appear,
   F#       G#   C#
On Easter's eve appear.

     C#              (Fm) F#       G#
Thus times do shift, thus times do shift,
     C#         G#        F#
Each thing it's time doth hold,
    F#     C#            G#    F#
New things succeed, new things succeed,
   F#     G#          C#
As former things grow old.

    C#      (Fm)  G#   F#       G#
The youthful box which now hath grace,
     C#      F#  G#
Your houses to renew,
     C#      Fm      F#        G#
Grown old, surrender must it's place,
  C#     F#        G#
Unto the freshened yew,
  F#     G#        C#
Unto the freshened yew.

     C#              (Fm) F#       G#
Thus times do shift, thus times do shift,
     C#         G#        F#
Each thing it's time doth hold,
    F#     C#            G#    F#
New things succeed, new things succeed,
   F#     G#          C#
As former things grow old.

[anybody work out the middle 8? please let me know]

     C#    (Fm)   G#  F#          G#
When yew is out, then birch comes in
    C#        G#     F#
And many the flowers beside,
     C#   Fm         F#      G#
Both of a fresh and fragrant kin,
   C#     F#      G#
To honour Whitsuntide,
   F#     G#      G#
To honour Whitsuntide.

     C#              (Fm) F#       G#
Thus times do shift, thus times do shift,
     C#         G#        F#
Each thing it's time doth hold,
    F#     C#            G#    F#
New things succeed, new things succeed,
   F#     G#          C#
As former things grow old.

C#           (Fm) G# F#     G#
Down with the rosemary and bay,
C#            F#    G#
Down with the mistletoe,
C#         Fm     F#     G#
Instead of holly, now up-raise
    C#      F#        G#    
The greener box, to show
    F#      G#       C#
The greener box to show.

     C#              (Fm) F#       G#
Thus times do shift, thus times do shift,
     C#         G#        F#
Each thing it's time doth hold,
    F#     C#            G#    F#
New things succeed, new things succeed,
   F#     G#          C#
As former things grow old.

     C#              (Fm) F#       G#
Thus times do shift, thus times do shift,
     C#         G#        F#
Each thing it's time doth hold,
    F#     C#            G#    F#
New things succeed, new things succeed,
   F#     G#          C#
As former things grow old.
