The Bear And The Maiden Fair

Em G B7 A bear here was, a bear, a bear. B7 Am G Em All black and brown and covered in hair! Em Oh come they said come to the fair G The fair? said he but I’m a bear Am B7 Em All black and brown and covered in hair! Em And down the road from here to there, G Three boys, a goat and a dancing bear Am B7 Em They danced and spun all the way to the fair! Em Oh! sweet she was and pure and fair, G The maid with honey In her hair Am B7 Em The maid with honey in her hair! Em G Am B7 Em Em The bear smelled the scent on the summer air G Am B7 Em The Bear! The Bear! All black and brown and covered with hair Em He smelled the scent on the summer air, G He sniffed and roared and smelled it there Am B7 Em Honey on the summer air! Em Oh I’m a maid, I’m pure and fair G I’ll never dance with a hairy bear Am B7 Em I’ll never dance with a hairy bear! Em The bear,the bear G Lifted her high into the air Am B7 Em The bear, the bear, the bear! Em I called for a knight but you’re a bear G A bear! A bear! Am B7 Em All black and brown and covered in hair Em She kicked and wailed the maid so fair G But he licked the honey from her hair Am B7 Em He licked the honey from her hair! Em G Then she sighed and squealed and kicked the air Am C She sang: My bear so fair Am B7 B7 Am Em And off they went The bear! The bear and the maiden fair!
