This lesson is my tribute to the phenomenal series Game of Thrones. We sing (yes, there is the guitar and all!) the song from the second episode of the final season of GoT - Jenny of Oldstones - and we use this to help us understand how to correctly pronounce the -ed (past participle) endings of regular verbs, how to drop consonants in connected speech and what is the Would for Reminiscence form!

The audio is mine and the chords used for the guitar are here below for you if you want to try playing the song yourselves! The original version was sung by Florence + The Machine and you can find their version on Spotify and YT.

d F C
High in the halls of the kings who are gone
C d
Jenny would dance with her ghosts
d F C
The ones she had lost and the ones she had found
g A7 d
And the ones who had loved her the most

d F C
The ones who'd been gone for so very long
C d
She couldn't remember their names
d F C
They spun her around on the damp old stones
g A7 d
Spun away all her sorrow and pain

C d g C F
And she never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
C d g A7 d
Never wanted to leave, never wantY to leave
d F C
They danced through the day And into the night
C e d
through the snow that swept through the hall
d F C
From winter to summer then winter again
g A7 d
Till the walls did crumble and fall
