June Tabor (born 31 December 1947 in Warwick, England) is considered one of the foremost English folk singers of her generation. Aside from her highly-acclaimed solo music career, she has also combined her talents with greats such as Maddy Prior (as one half of Silly Sisters), Martin Simpson, Elvis Costello and Oysterband. In 2004, and again in 2012, she was named Folk Singer of the Year at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. In 2011 the album "Ragged Kingdom" by June Tabor & Oysterband was named "Album of the Year" in the fROOTS critics poll.

Verse 1 =======
Cmaj7F As I walked out one summer's morn Am(2) EmF Saw a scarecrow tied to a pole in a field of corn Cmaj7F His coat was black and his head was bare Am(2) EmF When the wind shook him the crows took up into the air
Refrain 1 =========
AmG /GbEm Ah, would you lay me down and love me AmG /GbEmF Ah, would you lay me down and love me if you could Cmaj7F But you're only a bag of rags in an over-all Am(2) EmF That the wind sways and the crows fly away and the corn grows tall
Verse 2 =======
Cmaj7F As I walked out on a winter's day Am(2) EmF Saw an old man hanging from a pole in a field of clay Cmaj7F His coat was gone and his head hung low Am(2) EmF Till the wind flung it up to look, wrung his neck and let it go
Refrain 2 =========
AmG /GbEm How could you lay me down and love me AmG /GbEmF How could you lay me down and love me now Cmaj7F For you're only a bag of bones in an overall Am(2) EmF That the wind blows and the kids throw stones at the thing on the pole
Verse 3 =======
Cmaj7F As I walked out one fine spring day Am(2) EmF Saw twelve jolly guards sticked out in the blue and the gold so gay Cmaj7F Onto a stake they tied a child new-born Am(2) EmF Then the bells were rung and the songs were sung and they sold their corn
Refrain 3 =========
AmG /GbEm Now you can lay me down and love me AmG /GbEmF Now you can lay me down and love me if you will Cmaj7F But you're only a bag of rags in an over-all Am(2) EmF But the wind blew and the sun shone to and the corn grew tall
