THE BLUE TAIL FLY II chrom

(Jimmy Crack Corn)

19^th C. American folk song

Key: E

-6* 7* 7* 6 6 -5* -6* -6*

When I was young I used to wait
-6*-6* -6* -5* -6* -6* 6    6
on mas-ter hand-ing him his plate,
6    7*    7* 6   6   6   5* 5* -7
I brought his bot-tle when he was dry
5*   -4   -5*-6* -7   7*   6    6
and brushed a-way the Blue Tail Fly.
-4 -4   6    6    6 -5* -6* -6*
Jim-my crack corn and I don't care,
-4 -4 -6* -6* -6* 6 7*   7*
Jim-my crack corn and I don't care,
6 6    7*   7*   7* -7 8*   8*
Jim-my crack corn and I don't care,
8* -8   -8    -7 -6* 6
old mas-ter’s gone a-way.
