[Intro 1]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
One winter's [C]Eve [F]I went a
[C]walking out beyond the [G]city [C]gate
For to fetch a [F]fresh young [C]pheasant
for my darling's [G]dinner [C]plate
It was snowing [F]oh so [C]quietly and
the woods were [G]wide and [C]soft
Just the sound of [F]snowflakes [C]falling
and the footsteps [G]as I [C]walked
There I saw a [G]fresh young [C]pheasant
and I shot and [F]killed him [C]there
And I heard a [F]distant [C]church bell
as the bird fell [G]from the [C]air
As I held his [F]dying [C]body the strangest
thought came [G]over [C]me
God had made this [F]little [C]body that
I had killed so [G]fault[C]lessly
All the woods were [G]dark and [C]shadowed
with the light [F]the cold stars [C]gave
I sent a prayer to [F]God in [C]heaven and
covered up the [G]little [C]grave
And covered up the [G]little [C]grave
