The Woodpecker Song

Reginella Campagnola (E. Di Lazzaro)

 5    6   6   6  6     7     6  -5-4
He's up each morning bright and early
 8  -7  -7 -7  -6   6  -5  -4
To wake up all the neighborhood
5    6    6  6  6  7   6  -5 -4
To bring to ev'ry boy and girlie
 6   6 6   6 -5 5  -4   4
His happy serenade on wood.

 5    6   -5-5   -5 -5 -5-6-4
Hear him pickin' out a melody
-4    -5     5 5     5  5    5   6   4
Peck, peck, peckin' at the same old tree.
 4   5  -4-4  -4 -4 -4-5  -3
He's as happy as a bumble bee
-3  -4    4
All day long.

4   5 6 7    -7  -8-6
To serenade your lady
 -4   -5 -6  -7   -6     7 6
Just find a tree that's shady
 4   5    6   -6   6   -7  -6  -6   6     -7 -6
And when you hear that tick-a-tick-tick, tick-a-
 -6   6
tick-tick
-6     6   -5 5
Sing right along.

 4    5  6   7  -7   -8-6
Come on and try his rhythm
-4  -5   -6   -7    -6    7    6
And let your hearts beat with 'im
 4    5 6   -6   6   -7 -6  -6    6    -7  -6
Just listen to that tick-a-tick-tick, tick-a-
-6    -6
tick-tick
-7 -6  -6 6   -6  6 -8   7~~~~~~~
Happy little Woodpecker Song.~~~~~
