and responsibility goes to the author.

  Am                    F                     G       C
She had the grace of a dancer, pretty as the morning sun,
      Am                    F                                   G
Her days were filled with laughter, and when sixteen years had come,
         Am                  F                    E7      Am
She went to work in the old house, and there she met her love,
    F                  C             F               G
But he, the son, was high-born, and she, a village girl;

      Am                  F                      G        C
They met at night by the river, and there he pledged his love,
      Am                F                             G
And so it was for the summer, but by winter, all was done,
          Am                  F                     E7        Am
For the word was out in the village that she would have his child,
          F                C               F                 G
And the night before she left him, these words were in his heart,
                 C                   F              G
When she said, "Love is all that we have, it is forever,
  C                   F              G
Love is all that we need, to be together,
  C       Am            F            G            
     C
Love is all that this world has to share, only love
  C            G
Can take us there;"

      Am                        F                  G      C
They found her clothes by the river, of her there was no trace,
      Am                F                          G
And for many years he mourned her, haunted by her face,
       Am                F                    E7  Am
So he set off over the ocean, these memories to escape,
          F                  C
But the ship he sailed was ill-starred,
      F                   G
and soon would meet its fate;

| Am G F C | F F F 
|(2x)

      Am                   F                          G      C
They struck the rocks at midnight, in the grip of a roaring storm,
      Am                     F                        G
And he found himself in the water with a woman and a boy,
        Am                        F                     E7    
Am
With a power that was more than human, he brought them to the shore,
           F            C               F                G
And her whisper in the darkness was a voice he'd heard before,
                   C                   F              G
When she'd said, "Love is all that we have, it is forever,
  C                   F              G
Love is all that we need, to be together,
  C       Am          F              G
Love is all that this world has to share,
   F   C                G
Only love can take us there;

| C C C C | F F F 
| (2x)    | C C C C | F F G 
|

   F   C                G
Only love
     Am                   F                    G      C
She had the grace of a dancer, and the father of her son.
