Cuckoo's Nest Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]There's a pond
brush in the garden
where the [G]lads and lassies meet
But it wouldn't do to do
the do they're [Am]doing in the street
At the first time when I come there
I was [G]very much impressed
By the [Am]young folks busy rumbling
up the cuckoo's nest
It's hi, the cuckoo, ho, the cuckoo,
[G]hi, the cuckoo's nest
It's hi, the cuckoo, ho, the cuckoo,
[Am]hi, the cuckoo's nest
I'll get any man a -shivvin'
and a [G]bottle of the best
And add a [Am]rump a -lump of hell
to the cuckoo's nest
I met her in the mornin'
and I [G]took her in the night
I never had another,
so I [Am]had to do it right
I'd never gone that way before,
and I [G]never would have guessed
If she [Am]hadn't shown me
where to find the [G]cuckoo's nest
[Am]It's hi the cuckoo, ho the cuckoo,
[G]hi the cuckoo's nest
It's hi the cuckoo, ho the cuckoo,
[Am]hi the cuckoo's nest
Why, we've any man a -shillin'
and a [G]-barkin' at the nest
That'll [Am]rumble up the feathers
of the cuckoo's nest
Ah, she told me how to find it,
and she [G]showed me where to go
Through the [Am]pickles and the brambles
where the little cuckoos crawled
From the minute I found it
she would [G]never let me rest
Until I [Am]rumpled up the feathers
of a cuckoo's nest
It's hi the cuckoo, ho the cuckoo,
[G]hi the cuckoo's nest
It's hi the cuckoo, ho the cuckoo,
[Am]hi the cuckoo's nest
I only needed a shillin'
and a [G]bottle of the best
And there I [Am]rumbled up the feathers
of a [G]cuckoo's [Am]nest
It was thorny, it was prickled,
it was [G]feathered all around
It was choked into a corner
and it was[Am]n't easy found
She said, young man, you're blundering
I [G]said, it isn't true
I [Am]left her with the nakeds
of a young cuckoo
It's hi the cuckoo, ho the cuckoo,
[G]hi the cuckoo nest
Hi the cuckoo, ho the cuckoo,
[Am]hi the cuckoo nest
I'll give anyone a shillin'
and a [G]bottle of the best
And a [Am]rumble of the fat
of the cuckoo's nest
