Nickel Creek

Nickel Creek - The Fox guitar tab

"The Fox" is a really cool song done by a new group called Nickel Creek.

This is the only record that I know of they have out. Here are the lyrics

and notes I have picked out. It is played in G with the k-pole on the

second fret and is played really fast. This is lots of fun to play.

ENJOY!!!!

"The Fox"

G

The fox went out on a chilly night

D

He prayed for the moon to give him light

G C

For heâd many a mile to go that night

G D G D G

Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o

C G D G

Heâd many a mile to go that night, before he reached the town-o

G

He ran til he came to the farmerâs pen

D

The ducks and the geese were kept therein

G C

He said, ãa couple of you are gonna grease my chin,

G D G D G

Before I leave this town-o, town-o, town-oä

C G D G

Said a couple of you are gonna grease my chin, before I leave this town-o

G

He grabbed the great goose by the neck

D

And he threw a duck across his back

G C

And he didnât mind the quack, quack

G D G D G

And the legs all dangling down-o, down-o, down-o

C G D G

He didnât mind the quack, quack and the legs all dangling down-o

G

The old grey woman jumped out of bed

D

Out of the window she popped her head,

G C

Crying John, John, the great goose is gone

G D G D G

And the fox is on the town-o, town-o, town-o

C G D G

John, John, the great goose is gone and the fox is on the town-o

G

He ran til he came to his nice warm den

D

And there were the little ones, eight, nine, ten

G C

Sayin Daddy, Daddy, better go back again

G D G D G

For it must be a might fine town-o, town-o, town-o

C G D G

Daddy, Daddy, go back again for it must be mighty fine town-o

G

The fox and his wife, without any strife

D

Cut up the goose with a fork and a knife

G C

They never had such a supper in their life

G D G D G

And the little ones chewed on the bones-o, bones-o, bones-o

C G

They never had such a supper in their life

D G

And the little ones chewed on the bones
