In woollen coat and boots of leather

The February man still shakes the snow 
             Am/G              E 
From off his hat and blows his hands

The man of March he sees the Spring

Through April rain the man goes down to watch the birds

Come in to share the summer 
                      Dm              Am 
The man of May stands very still watching the children  
Am/G           E 
Dance away the day 
       Am7            Asus2 
And in June the man inside the man 
   C         ~        G 
Is young and wants to lend a hand

And smiles on each newcomer

                Dm            G 
And in July the man in cotton shirt he sits  
    Em              Am 
And thinks on being idle

And the August man in thousands take the road  
             Am/G             E 
To watch the sea and find the sun

And early frost is on his shoulder 
                      Dm                Am 
And the poor November man sees fire and mist 
             Am/G            E 
And wind and rain and winter air 
      Am7              Asus2 
And December man looks through the snow 
   C    ~              G 
To let eleven brothers know 
        F            Am 
They're all a little older

                Dm               G 
And the January man comes round again 
           Em                Am 
In woollen coat and boots of leather 
                Dm             Am 
To take another turn and walk along  
        Am/G             E 
The icy road he knows so well 
    Am7         Asus2 
And the January man is here 
    C        ~        G 
For starting each and every year 
 F                Am 
Along the road forever
