F Em G C
C Am C Am
The ferry man brought me with mind open, dreaming,
F Em G C
we cut the depths with laughter.
C Am C Am
Stayed with my youth that God's tooth cut when weaning,
F G F
now and ever after.
F
The will of the void is to shape and name forms...
Am C Am C
our dance was never done, then.
F
I remember you well from before you were born,
Am C Am C
my chance was never won, then.

I burned the sports pages,

as I already knew the score.
C F Am F
Put faith in the fire,
C F Am F
forever and ever more.

Your colours of autumn,
C Am
you're burnished with gold there,
F Em G C
and standing in the river.
C Am
The circle of trees and
C Am
the full wish we told there,
F G F
truthful as a prison.
F
I looked at the mystery and all she evoked,
Am C Am C
my patron saint stood near her.
F
But the mystery walked and the mystery spoke,
Am C Am C
my saint said, "never fear her".

Now Mab is my queen, oh,
and Mab is my chief.
C F Am F
Mab is my root now,
C F Am F
my strong trunk and branch to the leaf.
C Am
The circle remains and still from its past;
F G F G
now waiting, now singing, now flying half-mast.
C Am
She is and she's whole, I'll know love again.
F G F G
I'll know my song well, each dying refrain.
C Am
Each cadence and twist, well-observed in its harmony.
F G
Silence come clean,
F Am
pull stillness for our lady.
Am C
Gypsy hymn sing we slow,
F G F G
and tenderly bear me on your west wind blow... your

and sing me again before you got to go.

Sing me again before you got to go.
