[Intro]
 
Am   E    Am  E  Am
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
Am   E           Am        E          Am         F             Am   E    Am
On a wagon bound for market there's a calf with a mournful eye
Am     E             Am       E            Am     Dm        Am   E  Am
high above him there's a swallow winging swiftly through the sky
 G                        Am          G                        Am
all the winds are laughing, they laugh with all their might
G                            Am
love and laugh the whole day through
                        E       Am
and half the summers night
 
 
[Chorus]
 
E                                     Am
Donna Donna Donna ..... Donna
G                                Am
Donna Donna Donna Donna
G                                        Am
Donna Donna Donna ...... Donna
Am                  E        Am    E    Am E Am
Donna Donna Donna Don
 
Am   E    Am  E Am
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Am   E           Am        E          Am         F             Am   E    Am
Calves are easily bound and slaughtered never knowing the reason why
Am     E             Am       E            Am     Dm        Am   E  Am
Why can't you have wings to fly with like the swallow I've learned to fly
G                        Am          G                        Am
all the winds are laughing, they laugh with all their might
G                            Am
love and laugh the whole day through
                        E       Am
and half the summers night

The missing Verse 2 (Verse 2 in this version is actually Verse Nr. 3) Am E7/B Am E7/B Am Dm E E7/B Am "Stop complaining" said the farmer, "Who told you a calf to be? Am E7/B Am E7/B Am Dm E E7 Am Why don't you have wings to fly with, like the swallow,so proud and free?"
