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

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

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

Sayin Daddy, Daddy, better go back again

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

The fox and his wife, without any strife

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
