Gordon Bok - Loni

High a^Amlong the John Muir ^Gtrail, from Whitney ^Ctoward Star ^GKing Lon and ^AmI set pace to ^Emreach Yosemi^Cte that ^Dspring ^G And like some ^Amdream of Gulli^Gver, we spied El ^CCapit^Gan Wild gables, ^Amspires and granite ^Emwalls, not shaped by ^Cany ^Dman ^C Night fell like talus from the ^Gstone and ^CLoni said to ^Dme

Douse the ^Cfire, but ^Dkeep the ^Gflame^{G/F# Em} 'Til morning ^Amwarms old ^DTuolem^Gne Douse the ^Cfire, but ^Dkeep the ^Gflame^{G/F# Em} 'Til morning ^Amwarms old ^DTuolem^Gne

^DBlack bear ^Amroamed the tama^Grack, from Cloud's Rest ^Cto Cock's ^GComb Where silent ^Amsnowmelts filled the ^Emstreams that burst and ^Cthundered ^Ddown ^C And where Tanaya caught the ^Gmoon, ^CLoni said to ^Dme

Douse the ^Cfire, but ^Dkeep the ^Gflame^{G/F# Em} 'Til morning ^Amwarms old ^DTuolem^Gne Douse the ^Cfire, but ^Dkeep the ^Gflame^{G/F# Em} 'Til morning ^Amwarms old ^DTuolem^Gne

^DFrom Dogwood ^Amand Sequoia ^Gstands, we climbed the ^CVernal ^GTrail By Big-leaf, ^Ammaple shine with ^Emmist, we scaled the ^CBridal ^DVeil ^C And where Half-Dome, the hooded ^Ghawk, ^Cset her shadow ^Dfree

We doused the ^Cfire, but ^Dkept the ^Gflame^{G/F# Em} 'Til morning ^Amwarms old ^DTuolem^Gne Douse the ^Cfire, but ^Dkeep the ^Gflame^{G/F# Em} 'Til morning ^Amwarms old ^DTuolem^Gne

Now I know a^Amround Cathedral ^GPeak, the seasons ^Ccloud and ^Gclear And it seems I can't ^Amquite count the ^Emyears since Lon and ^CI were ^Dthere ^C Still when all the ^Gdarkness falls, it's ^CLoni close to ^Dme

Douse the ^Cfire, but ^Dkeep the ^Gflame^{G/F# Em} 'Til morning ^Amwarms old ^DTuolem^Gne Douse the ^Cfire, but ^Dkeep the ^Gflame^{G/F# Em} 'Til morning ^Amwarms old ^DTuolem^Gne
