The only tabs I found for this song were "pro" tabs, and I thought it was a pity not to have this less knownbut great song on UG. The strumming pattern is like:Ee|------------------| B|------------------| G|--1---1-0-1---1-0-| D|--2---2-0-2---2-0-| A|--2---2-0-2---2-0-| E|--0---0-0-0---0-0-| Ae|------------------|B|--2---2-0-2---2-0-|G|--2---2-0-2---2-0-|D|--2---2-0-2---2-0-|A|--0---0-0-0---0-0-|E|------------------|B7 (x21202)e|--2---2-0-2---2-0-|B|--0---0-0-0---0-0-|G|--2---2-0-2---2-0-|D|--1---1-0-1---1-0-|A|--2---2-0-2---2-0-|E|------------------|So here it is... Please rate and comment!/ E / E // E / E /EI came upon a butcher, Ahe was slaughtering a lamb, EI accused him there B7with his tortured lamb. EHe said "Listen to me, child, AI am what I am EB7Aand you, you are my only son." / E /EWell, I found a silver needle, AI put it into my arm. EIt did some good, B7did some harm. EBut the nights were cold Aand it almost kept me warm, EB7Ahow come the night is long? / E /EI saw some flowers growing up Awhere that lamb fell down; Ewas I supposed to praise my Lord, B7make some kind of joyful sound? EHe said, "Listen, listen to me now, AI go round and round EB7Aand you, you are my only child." / E /EDo not leave me now, Ado not leave me now, EI'm broken down B7from a recent fall. EBlood upon my body Aand ice upon my soul, EB7Alead on, my son, it is your world./ E / E /
