We shared the experience of being alive
And then we took some tea
We finished up and all on a whim
We talked as it was free
AWhen we went to get Em11the bill
DThe lady looked us oAver
She told us, 'now yoEm11u stay quite still
DAnd I'll fetch in some clover'
BmAnd all of the yAellowEm11 melancholy
BmThe world about Agrew Em11stark
BmThe only sound inA allEm11 of the place
BmWas the singing oAf aEm11 lark
D-0--0h5-5/7--7/5-------------
BmIt sang HAolly go Em11lightly bright Das the day
BmFresh as Athe moon andEm11 stale as the hay
BmCold as tAhe windowEm11 frozen with frDost
Bm A Em11 (slide to 7th fret then back on low D)
You never been seen and you never been lost
Bridge
And lost I was for all of the time
We never shared thereafter
Closing my books and shoeing my feet
The air blew in much darker
Floor boards they've been laughing at me
The folds of my skin are frayed
I'm the oldest man I know by now
I was the youngest yesterday
What did I lose to mourn so long
A worm in the heart has tamed me
Laying to rest in a ventricle
Stirs when I take my tea
D--0--0h5--5/7-7/5--0h5--0h5---0h5---5/7-7/5-----
Holly go lightly bright as the day
Fresh as the moon and stale as the hay
Cold as the window frozen with frost
You never been seen and you never been lost

I saw her once and she came upon the midday
And gave me both her hands
It seemed while I was still dreaming of the waves
That she lived a while on land
Slipping through a stream of dark
The streets laid out a way
Stayed above the level
Kept my wandering heart at bay
In the sage strands a feeling in the landlord's daily dealing
There's a turn of a twisting smile
Cheap is your time when our tea don't taste so fine
How are you, it's been a while
D--0--0h5--5/7-7/5--0h5--0h5---0h5---5/7-7/5-----
Holly go lightly bright as the day
Fresh as the moon and stale as the hay
Cold as the window frozen with frost
You never been seen and you never been lost
Holly go lightly bright as the day
Cold as the moon and stale as the hay
Fresh as the window frozen with frost
You never been seen and you never been lost
