Here We Come A Wassailing Chords

(ver. 1)
Kate Rusby
Just use these basic chords

G
D
Em (3 3 0 2 2 0)
C (3 3 0 2 3 0)

Put a Capo on the 2nd fret

Song starts with picking, I think you can play around to figure it out. I think 
it's something like this

e - - - - -3 -- - - - -| 
b - - - - - -3 - - - - |
G - - - - - - 0 - - - -|           --> and repeat this...this is basically it.
D - - - 0 - - - - - - -|
A - - - - - - - - - - -| 
E - - 3 - - - - 3 - - -| 

G
Here we come a-wassailing among the leaves so green,
Here we come a wandering so fairly to be seen

                                                 (walk down on A-string 3-2-0 during these chords)
Em              D              C - Em      D  
Here we come a-wandering so fairly to be seen.

Chorus
          G                       
Love and joy come to you and to you our wassail too,
     Em            D          G           C
God bless you and send you a Happy New Year,
     G           D            G
God send you a Happy New Year.

(Now Verse and Chorus the same as above)

We are not daily beggars,
That beg from door to door,
But we are neighbours children,
That you´ve seen before.
We are neighbors' children,
That you´ve seen before.

....
    G          D           G-C (Change the strumming pattern according to the song)
God send you a Happy New Year.

  G             C           G                  D
I have a little purse it´s made of leather skin,
  G           C                 G                   D
I need a silver sixpence, to line it well within.
  Em        D                C       Em       D  (walk down the A-string again)
I need a silver sixpence, to line it well within.

God bless the master of this house,
And then the mistress too,
And all the little children,

that 'round this table grew.
