The Tower

D                                 
A great Lord came walking through 
    Dmaj7                     G   
the forest one morning with a 
          D
weapon in his hand
                        Dmaj7      
Rich was his castle, he lacked for 
         G               Asus4 A
nothing, killing was his plan
       Bm                      F#m
When a white bird flew by, she fell 
from the sky
G           D           Em      
Nothing was found, only blood on
     Asus4 A
 the ground
        D
She was gone

[Verse 2]
D                       Dmaj7    
Cursing his fortune, he turned to
               G          D
 the forest to kill once again
                          Dmaj7 
Standing before him was a lovely 
                      G          
young woman with her hand hung in 
  Asus4 A
pain
        Bm                    
When he saw her, his eyes were 
 F#m
filled with desire
   G            D         Em     
He said "I must have her, she 
     Asus4 A
must be mine.
            D
She will be mine."

[Verse 2]
D                         Dmaj7  
He offered her silver, he offered
                  G               
 her gold but she threw it on the 
D
ground
                            Dmaj7  
He fell to his knees and he begged 
                          G        
her, "Oh please come with me, what 
                 Asus4 A
you wish will be found"
          Bm                      
She said, "Sire, I'll go if you'll
F#m
 put up your bow

    G           D          Em    
And spare these creatures, leave 
        Asus4 A
them in peace
            F#sus4  F#
You have no need"

        Em         A           D
But her words were lost in the wind
    G         D          A
His eyes were fixed on a queen
    Bm               F#m       Em
And all he saw was a woman but 
      A          D
all she was, was a dream
G  A  F# Bm G      D      Asus4  A
Oh Oh Ah Ah DaDaDa DaDaDa Da
Bm               F#m       Em    
All he saw was a woman and all 
  A          D
she was, was a dream

[Verse 3]
D                              
He took her and bound her with 
Dmaj7                             
ropes tied around her, to his 
      G             D
castle he did ride
                              Dmaj7
In the wood was a bower where stood
                     G             
 an old tower and he threw her deep
   Asus4 A
 inside
        Bm                       
And the birds left the sky and a 
F#m
terrible cry
        G           D          Em
Brought thunder and lightning, 
           Asus4 A
rain falling down
             D
Tears on the ground

[Verse 4]
D                           Dmaj7
All through the days on her face 
                          G        
he would gaze for she was lovely as
     D
 the spring
                              Dmaj7
No words would she speak but "Leave
                         G         
 them in peace" and some sad lament
           Asus4 A
 she would sing
    Bm                           
One day by the door, through the 
F#m             G            D  
window he saw a single white 
     Em           Asus4 A
feather lying on the floor
                 D
She was there no more

[Verse 5]
D                                 
Now that great Lord is dying, his 
Dmaj7                        G   
cold heart is crying for the love
        D
 of the girl
                        Dmaj7      
For many an hour he has wept on the
                G                  
 Tower, for she meant more than the
 Asus4 A
 world
    Bm                     F#m    
One day in the sky a white bird 
          G          D         Em
flew by, he lifted his hands, he 
           Asus4 A
cried out in pain
           F#sus4  F#
Come back again

        Em         A           D
But his words were lost in the wind
    G          D          A
His castle was built upon sand
Bm              F#m        Em    
All he has is a memory and all he
 A             D
 yearns is her hand
G  A  F# Bm G      D      Asus4  A
Oh Oh Ah Ah DaDaDa DaDaDa Da
Bm              F#m        Em    
All he has is a memory and all he
 A             D
 yearns is her hand.
