G

[Verse]
    C
Oh, Fiddler John, they say he's crazy
                     G
He knows better, but he won't say
C
Every day you can see him a-sitting there
                   G
Dear old John just fiddles away

[Verse]
    C
And he won't listen to your questions
                   G
He'll just answer, yes or no
    C
But if he takes the time to listen
                        G
He'll play you a tune before you go

[Chorus]
F     C                          F
John, John, play us another tune
      C     G
John, John, play one more
F     C                         F
John, John, play us another one
      C     G
John, John, play one more

[Verse]
C
Some tell of when old John was a soldier
                G
He was gone for many a year
C
He came back with a fiddle in his haversack
                G
Broken memories cost him dear

[Chorus]
F     C                          F
John, John, play us another tune
      C     G
John, John, play one more
F     C                         F
John, John, play us another one
      C     G
John, John, play one more

[Verse]
C
Saturday night and John is welcome
                 G
Brandy, wine are all in store
    C
And when the dawn is fast approaching
                   G
Still they ask for just one more

[Chorus]
F     C                          F
John, John, play us another tune
      C     G
John, John, play one more
F     C                         F
John, John, play us another one
      C     G
John, John, play one more

[Verse]
C
Fiddler John, they say he's crazy
                     G
He knows better, but he won't say
C
Every day you can see him a-sitting there
                   G
Dear old John just fiddles away

[Chorus]
F     C                          F
John, John, play us another tune
      C     G
John, John, play one more
F     C                         F
John, John, play us another one
      C     G
John, John, play one more
