There was a king who ruled the land 
      
    Bsus4  Asus4 G6    F#7sus4 
His Majesty was in command 
      
     Bsus4  Asus2    G6      F#7sus4 Bsus4  Asus2  G6     F#7sus4 
With silver eyes the scarlet eagle showered silver on the people 
      
G   D   A       G    D  E 
Oh____, mother, tell me more 
      
N.C. 
Why'd you have to leave me there, 
      
                          B 
Hanging in my infant air, waiting? 
      
N.C. 
You only have to read the lines of scribbly black and ev'rything shines 
      
      
 Bsus4     Asus2       G6     F#7sus4 
Across the stream with wooden shoes, 
      
Bsus4    Asus2    G6       F#7sus4 
Bells to tell the king the news, 
      
  Bsus4    Asus2 G6     F#7sus4  Bsus4  Asus2  G6   F#7sus4 
A thousand misty riders climb up higher once upon a time 
      
G     D       A 
Wondering and dreaming 
      
    G          D         E 
The words have different meanings 
      
A    G    E       F# 
Yes, they did 
      
      
   Bsus4   Asus4      G6      F#7sus4 
Of all the time spent in that room, 
      
    Bsus4        Asus2     G6     F#7sus4 
The doll's house darkness, old perfume, 
      
    Bsus4 Asus2   G6      F#7sus4 Bsus4     Asus2         G6  F#7sus4 
And fairy stories held me high on clouds of sunlight floating by 
      
G   D   A       G    D  E 
Oh____, mother, tell me more 
      
A    G  E 
Tell me more
