^GWhen we went to g^Fet the bill The ^Clady looked us ^Gover

She ^Gtold us, 'now you ^Fstay quite still And ^CI'll fetch in some ^Gclover'

And ^Amall of the ^Gyellow ^Fmelanchol^Cy The ^Amworld a^Gbout grew ^Fstark

The ^Amonly ^Gsound in a^Fll of the ^Cplace Am G F [he sometimes alternates between low F and low E] Was the singing of a lark

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 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 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 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
