Farmer Giles Of Ham

E G Am

Farmer Giles of Ham

E G Am

Was just an ordinary man.

E G Am

But when a giant came to destroy the village

E G Am

Giles ran outside and shot that giant in the nose

Am

and don't you know, that giant never came back to Ham

Am E

Ever again

 

E Am

He's farmer Giles of Ham

E G

farmer Giles of Ha am am

G

he's just an ordinary man.

 

E G Am

The evil dragon Chrysophylax

E G Am

was terrorizing the countryside

E G Am

king Augustus sent a messenger to Ham, he said

E G Am

"Giles he's our man, and if he cant do it

Am

no one can. Fetch me the farmer,

Am E

farmer Giles of Ham

 

E Am

He's farmer Giles of Ham

E G

farmer Giles of Ha am am

G

he's just an ordinary man.

 

E G Am

With his coat made of iron rings

E G Am

and the sword given to him by the king

E G Am

Giles went to the dragons lair that day

E G Am

Poor dragon had to give its whole hoard away

Am

and as you can imagine that made the dragon

Am E

very very mad

 

E Am

At farmer Giles of Ham

E G

farmer Giles of Ha am am

G

he's just an ordinary man.

 

E G Am

Giles later went on to be the king

E G Am

but he didn't forget his friends i Ham

E G Am

when he moved into castle he brought them all along

E G Am

he even brought his talking dog, and if you recall the dog,

Am E

the dogs name is Gram

 

E Am

At farmer Giles of Ham

E G

farmer Giles of Ha am am

G

he's just an ordinary man
