Bb   Gm  F  Eb

[Verse 1]
Bb                 Gm            F    Eb
In youth's spring, it was my lot
Bb                 Gm             F    Eb
To haunt of the wide earth a spot
Bb                 Gm              F    Eb
To which I could not love the less
Bb                 Gm        F   Eb
So lovely was the loneliness

Bb                 Gm                 F   Eb
Of a wild lake, with black rock bound
Bb                 Gm                  F   Eb
And the tall trees that towered around

[Pre-Chorus]
                                   Cm
But when the night had thrown her pall
            Dm           Eb
Upon that spot as upon all
                           Cm
And the wind would pass me by
         Eb       D7
In its stilly melody

[Chorus]
                          Eb
My infant spirit would awake
          F                Gm
To the terror of the lone lake
                         Eb
My infant spirit would awake
          F                Bb
To the terror of the lone lake

Gm   F   Eb

[Verse 2]
Bb          Gm
Yet that terror was not fright
        F                Eb
But a tremulous delight
Bb              Gm
And a feeling undefined
           F                    Eb
Springing from a darkened mind

Bb                              Gm
Death was in that poisoned wave
                            F    Eb   Bb
And in its gulf, a fitting grave
             Gm
For him who thence could solace bring
        F             Eb
To his dark imagining

       Bb                           Gm
Whose wildering thought could even make
                     F   Eb
An Eden of that dim lake

[Pre-Chorus]
                                   Cm
But when the night had thrown her pall
            Dm           Eb
Upon that spot as upon all
                           Cm
And the wind would pass me by
         Eb        D7
In its stilly melody

[Chorus]
                        Eb
My infant spirit would awake
         F                 Gm
To the terror of the lone lake
                        Eb
My infant spirit would awake
         F                 Gm
To the terror of the lone lake
                         Eb
My infant spirit would awake
          F           Bb     Gm
To the terror of the lake

[Bridge]
                           F
Springing from a darkened mind
    Eb             Bb
So lovely was the loneliness
            Gm
In youth's spring, it was my lot
         F        Eb
In its stilly melody

[Otro]
                     Bb   Gm
An Eden of that dim lake
                     F    Eb
An Eden of that dim lake
                 Bb
Lone, lone, lonely
                 Gm
Lone, lone, lonely
                 F   Eb
Lone, lone, lonely
