Does anyone have the chords for this lovely Autumn song? I'm on a mission to learn it before Monday 10 Sept 2005, and time is running out. Help me, Obi-Wan, you're my only hope.

Marigold    Peter Knight, Maddy Prior

(G)
When the (D)marigold no longer (A)blooms,
When summer (C)sun is turned to (G)gloom,
(Bm)See the forecast winter (A)snow,
(C)See the evergreen that (A)lonely grows.

(G)Move close to the fire(A)place,
Neglect the (G)garden,
See the ground (A)harden
At a ghostly (G)pace.

The golden summer (D)sun is silver (A)now,
The fruit has (C)fallen from the (G)bough,
The (Bm)season moves to chestnut (A)time,
(C)Toffee apples, treacle (A)and mulled wine.

(G)Quilts and furs and woollens (A)gay
You wrap around (G)you,
But the cold confounds (A)you
On an autumn (G)day.

Stout and strong the (D)walls of home and (A)hearth,
The curtains (C)drawn against the (G)draft.
The (Bm)rake has reaped, the blade has (A)mown,
(C)Nights draw in to call the (A)harvest home.

The (G)quiet of a heart at (A)rest
In peace aboun(G)ded,
By love sur(A)rounded,
Here the home is (G)blest. (hold)
