The lion and the unicorn journey very far

Wherever angels are

  D/A              C/G
I asked the ice it would not say
    D/A              C/G
But only cracked or moved away
    D/A              C/G
I thought I knew me yesterday

Play me a magic word
 D/A                  C/G
Speak of hopes with thoughts absurd
 D/A              C/G
Thoughts floating by

Clouds across the sky

Moving pieces on the plains of Troy

 Am               E
Gipsy rover in a magic land
Bm                         C/G
Misty mountains where the eagles fly
Bm                        C/G        D
Lonely valleys where the lost ones cry


   D                           F    C
I had a little letter full of paper
C                    Em/G
Inky scratches everywhere

Help me find it everywhere


 Am                      E
Peacocks talking of the colour grey
  Am                E
Awaking soundly in darkest day
   Bm                   C/G
A howling tempest on a silent sea
 Bm                      C/G   D
Lovely Jesus nailed to a tree

   D                           F    C

Help me find it everywhere

Am                    E
Mad as the moon when Merlin falls
Am                  E
Silver castles and silver halls
 Bm                     C/G
Taking lessons from the piper's son
 Bm                     C/G
Learn to play while the world is young

 G 
Boys and girls come out to play
     D                   G
The moon doth shine as bright as day
 G                       
Leave your sorrows and leave your sleep
     D                    G
And join your playfellows in the street
D/A          
Come with a whoop or come with a call
 A                      D/A
Come with a goodwill or not at all
D/A
Up the ladder and down the wall
  A                   D/A
A ha'penny loaf will serve for all

Poor as the birds but to give their song away
 G           G7                 D7
Gathering possessions round to make a bright array

Dark was the night, praise God the open door
   G                        D7        G
I ain't got no home in this world anymore.

Farewell sorrow, praise God the open door

I ain't got no home in this world any more.
