[Chorus]
G Em C D
I hope you meet the peddler with the feather in his hat
G C D G
The penny whistle man with the orange colored cap
G Em C D
Bells on his coat and a raggle-taggle kind of grin
G C D G
He'll teach you how to love if you believe him
[Verse 1]
Em Bm Em Bm
In a misty mystic land beneath dark hills
C G C D Am7 D
The penny whistle peddler lives and there he weaves his magic spells
G Bm Am D
If you ever heard his piping coming from some forest glade
G C D G
Open up your mind and love and never be afraid
[Chorus]
G Em C D
I hope you meet the peddler with the feather in his hat
G C D G
The penny whistle man with the orange colored cap
G Em C D
Bells on his coat and a raggle-taggle kind of grin
G C D G
He'll teach you how to love if you believe him
[Verse 2]
Em Bm Em Bm
They never heard of war in the place he dwells
C G C D Am7 D
There's music and laughter and magic are the tales they tell
G Bm Am D
No One's ever nasty, Snakes and dogs don't ever bite
G C D G
Little children never cry, they're happy day and night
[Chrous]
G Em C D
I hope you meet the peddler with the feather in his hat
G C D G
The penny whistle man with the orange colored cap
G Em C D
Bells on his coat and a raggle-taggle kind of grin
G C D G
He'll teach you how to love if you believe him
[Verse 3]
Em Bm Em Bm
We are sad to tell you the whistle man has gone
C G C D Am7 D
Today you never hear of him, the sound of war and hate have come
G Bm Am D
But if children love each other narrow minds all pass away
G C D G
The penny whistle man will be back someday
[Chorus]
G Em C D
I hope you meet the peddler with the feather in his hat
G C D G
The penny whistle man with the orange colored cap
G Em C D
Bells on his coat and a raggle-taggle kind of grin
G C D G
He'll teach you how to love if you believe him
