THE ORB WEAVERS - In Gowan Ring
-------------------------------
Transcribed by: Wehmutshall
Dm Am Bb Am
Once upon the moment of beauty laid long past
Bb Dm Am A
the itch on the cheek of a mute mouth clasped
Bb Dm Am A
In a twirled looking glass, to go or stay, in course at its own display
Gm Dm Bb Asus2 Am A Asus4
A pot, a pan, a cutlery board, a pepper and black spice tray
Dm Am Bb Am
Time spooled, unspinning, Life scrolls unravel
Gm Dm Bb Am
The telling tale wends, bends and breaks these tomes we travel
Bb Dm Am A
Over and again we abide
Bb A D5 D#5 (repeat D5 and D#5)
but which side now of the Looking-glass façade am I?
Dm Am Bb Am
Memories haunt like diamonds, Reminiscence swirls as smoke
Bb Dm Am A
Nettles in the morning, At night steeped straw of oat
Bb Dm Am A
Petals of jasmine, anemones, In a water bowl afloat
Gm Dm Bb Asus2 Am A Asus4
How grace arranged the chance array, Come eventide's shifting glow
Dm Am Bb Am
Bend and stretch, swing and sway, I am as a snake in your hands
Gm Dm Bb Am
Wading loose as oars of two creaky boats, that play patterns with silt on the sand
Bb Dm
Black coruscation, loam liquid beads
Bb A Dm Bb Asus4 A
The Orb Weavers spin the length of their wheels…
