[A]There was a Hole
In the middle of the ground
The prettiest hole
That you ever did [E]see
Well the [A]hole in the ground,
and the [A]green grass [E]grew all ar[A]ound, all a[D]round,
And the [A]green grass [E]grew all ar[A]ound.
[A]Now in this hole
There was a root
The prettiest root
That you ever did [E]see

[VERSE]
Well the [A]root in the hole and the hole in the ground
And the [A]green grass [E]grew all a[A]round, all a[D]round,
And the [A]green grass [E]grew all a[A]round.
[A]Now on this root
There was a tree
The prettiest tree
That you ever did [E]see

[VERSE]
Well the [A]tree on the root and the root in the hole

And the hole in the ground

There was a twig
The prettiest twig

And the tree on the root and the root in the hole
And the hole in the ground

There was a nest
The prettiest nest
That you ever did [E]see

And the branch on the tree and the tree on the root
And the root in the hole and the hole in the ground

There was an egg
The prettiest egg
That you ever did [E]see.

There sat a bird
The prettiest bird
That you ever d[E]id see

Well, the bir[A]d on the egg and the egg in the nest
And the nest on the twig, and the twig on the branch
And the branch on the tree and the tree on the root
And the root in the hole and the hole in the ground,
and the [A]green grass [E]grew all ar[A]ound, all a[D]round,
And the [A]green grass [E]grew all ar[A]ound.
