Cuckoo (Traditional)

Am
gonna build me a log cabin 
     G	     Am
on a mountain so high
Am
so I can see my darling 
   G		Am
as she goes passing by

Am		
oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird 
	  G   E     Am
and she warbles as she flies
Am
but she never says cuckoo
	  G   E	    Am
'til the fourth day of july

now my horses, they ain't hungry
and they won't eat your hay
so i'll ride on just a little further
and i'll feed them on the way

oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird 
and she warbles as she flies
she'll cause you never no trouble
and she'll tell you no lies

you can see that I have wandered
from the dust that's on my feet
but now i'll build me a log cabin
and let my true love look for me
