^EmI have been cruel and kind without knowing ^CI fell into silence overwhelmed by these days For ^AmI had been shown empty rulers, ruling ^B7all things

^EmThinking the world was mine to lay hold of I ^Cbreathed in the promise of maiden and man But ^Ameach had their own illusions to hold ^B7on to

^EmI only ^Dwant to be left to my ^Cown ways ^EmThe rulers have ^Dwon leaving all things ^Cundone ^Bm ^EmI've stood in ^Dawe of the whole cre^Cation ^BmGathered among them was the ^Cmorning Giving all its rest ^Em

^EmThinking the world was mine to be lost in ^CI ran with a freedom and sang in between For ^AmI had the path of wonder There be^B7fore me

^EmI only ^Dwant to be left to my ^Cown ways ^EmThe rulers have ^Dwon leaving all things ^Cundone ^Bm ^EmI've stood in ^Dawe of the whole cre^Cation ^BmGathered among them was the ^Cmorning

Giving all its rest (Solo) Em C Am B7

I only ^Dwant to be left to my ^Cown ways ^EmThe rulers have ^Dwon leaving all things ^Cundone ^Bm ^EmI've stood in ^Dawe of the whole cre^Cation ^BmGathered among them was the ^Cmorning Giving all its rest ^Em
