Prickly Thorn But Sweetly Worn

   These chords are not used in the song but they are suggested by the melody if you 
to play the song on guitar these are the chords I would use

         D
Well the hills are pretty and rollin'
        C
But the thorn is sharp and swollen
        D
And the man plays a beautiful whistle
       C
But he wears a prickly thistle
        D
Singing Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
     C
Well A Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
D
Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
     C
Well A Li De Li De Li Oh Oh

    D
The silver birches pierce through an icy fog
      C
Which covers the ground most daily
        D
And the angels which carry St. Andrew high
    C
Are singing a tune most gaily

    D
One sound can hold back a thousand hands
     C
When the pipe plays a tune forlorn
     D
And the thistle is a prickly flower
     C
Aye, But how it is sweetly worn
        D
Singing Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
     C
Well A Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
D
Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
     C
Well A Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
