[Intro]
G C Am G

[Verse 1]
          C            F           C
Your father's gone a-hunting
         C                  F             C
He's deep in the forest so wild
              G                       G7
And he cannot take his wife with him
       F                         C
He cannot take his child
         C            F            C
Your father's gone a-hunting
             C               F            C
In the quicksand and the clay
            G                      G7
And a woman cannot follow him
       F                                 C
Although she knows the way

[Chorus]
           G                        Am
Your father's gone a-hunting
                     F                       G
Through the silver and the glass
            C       C/B           Am   G
Where only greed can enter
         F                              C
But spirit, spirit cannot pass

G    C

[Verse 2]
         C            F            C
Your father's gone a-hunting
             C                F         C
For the beast he'll never bind
              G                      G7
And he leaves a baby sleeping
                F                    C
And his blessings all behind
         C             F           C
Your father's gone a-hunting
               C            F         C
And he's lost his lucky charm
               G                            G7
And he's lost the guardian heart
                          F                          C
That keeps the hunter from the harm

[Chorus]

          G                         Am
Your father's gone a-hunting
        F                                G
He asked me to say goodbye
             C                 C/B     Am        G
And he warned me not to stop him
     F                                       C
I wouldn't, I wouldn't even try

G     C
