Capo: 2
C G F C
We Shared the experience of being alive
C G F
And then we took some tea
C G F C
We finished up and all on a whim
C G F
We talked as it was free
G F
When we went to get the bill
C G
The lady looked us over
G F
She told us, 'now you stay quite still
C G
And I'll fetch in some clover'
C G F C
And all of the yellow melancholy
C G F
The world about grew stark
C G F C
The only sound in all of the place
C G F
Was the singing of a lark
??????????????????????????
C G Am F
Holly go lightly bright as the day
C G F C
Fresh as the moon and stale as the hay
C G Am F
Cold as the window frozen with frost
C G F C
You never been seen and you never... been lost
??????????????????????????
C G F C
And lost I was for all of the time
C G F
We never shared thereafter
C G F C
Closing my books and chilling my feet
C G F
The air blew in much darker
G F
Four boys they've been laughing at me
C G
The folds of my skin are frayed
G F
I'm the oldest man I know by now
C G
As the youngest yesterday
C G F C
What did I lose to mourn so long
C G F
A worm in the heart has - me
C G F C
Laying to rest in a ventricle
C G F
Stirs when I take my tea
??????????????????????????
C G Am F
Holly go lightly bright as the day
C G F C
Fresh as the moon and stale as the hay
C G Am F
Cold as the window frozen with frost
C G F C
You never been seen and you never... been lost
??????????????????????????
C G F C
I saw her once and she came upon the midday
C G F
And gave me both her hands
C G F C
It seemed while I was still dreaming of the waves
C G F
That she lived a while on land
G F
Slipping through a stream of dark
C G
The streets laid out a way
G F
Stayed above the level
C G
Kept my wondering heart at bay
C G F C
In the s--a feeling in the land I was daily dealing
C G F
There's a turn of a twisting smile
C G F C
Cheap is your time now tea don't taste so fine
C G F
How are you, it's been a while
??????????????????????????
C G Am F
Holly go lightly bright as the day
C G F C
Fresh as the moon and stale as the hay
C G Am F
Cold as the window frozen with frost
C G F C
You never been seen and you never... been lost
C G Am F
Holly go lightly bright as the day
C G F C
Fresh as the moon and stale as the hay
C G Am F
Cold as the window frozen with frost
C G F C
You never been seen and you never... been lost
??????????????????????????
