[Verse 1]
CLast night I heard the Fvoice of Thomas CFraser 
CAnd the comfort of his words came to my Gears 
CBy a willow he was singing to the Fcatfish 
CAnd time had withered Gnot his tender Cyears F  
Oh Ctime had withered Gnot his tender yCears 
[Verse 2]
ACnd the Fhummingbirds were singing while he Cplayed his old guitar 
CAnd with every word he sang the breeze was Gstill
CAnd a light was shining down upon the Fwater from his Ceye 
CIf Thomas Fraser Gwants then Thomas CwillF  
Oh If CThomas Fraser Gwants, Thomas Cwill
[Verse 3] 
CIf he sang of life's miFsfortunes he would Csing up to the sky
CAs he struggled through the dangers of the Gdeep 
CAnd a moment when he gazed upon a Floving Shetland Cmoon
CAnd a love song for his Gfamily in their CsleepF  
Oh a Clove song for his Gfamily in their Csleep
[Chorus]
ACnd the Fhummingbirds were singing while he Cplayed his old guitar 
CAnd with every word he sang the breeze was Gstill
CAnd a light was shining down upon the Fwater from his Ceye 
CIf Thomas Fraser Gwants then Thomas CwillF  
Oh If CThomas Fraser Gwants, Thomas Cwill
[Verse 5]
CIf you join him by the Fwillow you'll be weClcome 
CTo soothe the savage breast his voice will Gtry
YCou all will be made welcome there Fwhere peace of mCind has curly hair
 CThomas sings and pGlays to tell us Cwhy F  
Oh CThomas sings and Gplays to tell us Cwhy 
[Chorus]
ACnd the Fhummingbirds were singing while he Cplayed his old guitar 
CAnd with every word he sang the breeze was Gstill
CAnd a light was shining down upon the Fwater from his Ceye 
CIf Thomas Fraser Gwants then Thomas CwillF  
Oh If CThomas Fraser Gwants, Thomas Cwill
[Outro]
As AmThomas sang his song a Cbaby sang along 
If CThomas Fraser Gwants then Thomas Cwill
Oh If CThomas Fraser Gwants then ThoCmas will
