[VERSE 1]
[D]"Lay me in a [Em]cushioned [A]chair
[D]Carry me, ye [F#m]four
With [Bm]cushions [G]here and [D]cushions th[Bm]ere
[Em]To see the world once [A]more

[Em]To stable and to [Bm]kennel go
[G]Bring what there [A]is to [D]br[A]ing
[Em]Lead my Lollard [Bm]to and fro
[G]Or gently [A]in a [G]ring

[VERSE 2]
[D]Put the chair[Em] upon the [A]grass
[D]Bring Rody an[F#m]d his hounds
That [Bm]I might c[G]ontented [D]pass [Bm]
[Em]From these earthly bou[A]nds."

[Em]His eyelids drop,[Bm] his head falls low
[G]His old eyes clou[A]d with[D] d[A]reams
[Em]The sun falls on[Bm] all things that grow
[G]Falls in s[A]leepy[G] streams

[VERSE 3]
[D]Brown Lollard[Em] treads up[A]on the lawn
[D]And to the ar[F#m]mchair goes
There[Bm] the old [G]man's dre[D]ams are gon[Bm]e
[Em]He smoothes the long, [A]brown nose

[Em]And now moves man[Bm]y affable tongue
[G]Upon his wasted h[A]ands [D] [A]
[Em]Leading aged hou[Bm]nds and young
[G]The huntsm[A]an ne[G]ar him stands

[VERSE 4]
[D]The servants [Em]round his [A]cushioned place
[D]Are with new [F#m]sorry wrung
Th[Bm]e hounds [G]are gazin[D]g on his fa[Bm]ce
[Em]The aged hounds and yo[A]ung

[Em]The fire is in th[Bm]e old man's eyes
[G]His fingers move [A]and sw[D]ay[A]
[Em]When the wanderi[Bm]ng music dies
[G]They hear [A]him f[G]eebly say:

[CHORUS]
[Bm]"Oh huntsman [G]Rody, [D]blow the [Bm]horn
[Em]Make the [A]hills [D]re[A]ply
[Bm]I cannot [G]blow u[D]pon my [Bm]horn
[Em]I can but [A]weep and [D]sigh."

[VERSE 5]
[D]One blind hou[Em]nd lies ap[A]art
[D]On the sun-sm[F#m]itten grass
He[Bm] holds co[G]mmune wit[D]h his heart[Bm]
[Em]The moments pass and p[A]ass

[Em]The blind hound w[Bm]ith a mournful wail
[G]He lifts his wint[A]ry hea[D]d [A]
[Em]The servants bea[Bm]r the body in
[G]The hounds[A] wail[G] for the dead

[Em]Make the [A]hills [D]re[A]ply
[Bm]Huntsman [G]Rody, [D]blow th[Bm]e horn
[Em]Make the h[A]ills repl[D]y

[Bm]Huntsman Rody[G] , blow[D] the horn[Bm]
[Em]Make the [A]hills [D]re[A]ply
[Bm]The hunts[G]man lo[D]osens o[Bm]n the morn
[Em]A gay and [A]mournful [D]cry
