The Dove

[Verse]
  G                             C 
I saw her in the morning as she 
             G
flew in on the wind
Sweeping down from the mountains, 
C              G
out across the plain
D                                  
Flying in, my pure white dove, she 
C
landed in my hand
       G            C              
She was giving me a message that I 
G                   Em
tried to understand
C       G           Em           
She was giving me a message that 
  G        D    G       C   G  C
I tried to understand

[Verse]
          G                        
Well, her voice was pure and 
         C                 G
simple, though something sounded 
wrong
For my ears had grown accustomed to 
  C                 G
a different kind of song

And as she brushed against my face, 
    C
she looked me in the eye
        G              C          
She said "Follow me my traveller, 
       G                      Em C
I will teach you how to fly"
 G            Em              
"Follow me my traveller, I will 
  G         D      G
teach you how to fly"

[Verse]
G                                 
Fly on my precious bird of peace 
   C                G
and show me what you must
Show me all those promises that 
C             G
crumbled into dust
     D                            
I do not doubt your honesty, your 
C
gentle heart is pure
      G             C             
But I weep for your innocence and 
    G                   Em C
the pain you must endure
  G             Em                
I weep for your innocence and the 
G        D      G      C   G  C
pain you must endure

[Verse]
    G                              
And as we flew across the land, she
 C               G
 slowly lost her flight
And the sun lay down in sympathy and
 C               G
 gave way to the night
    D                             
But guided by a distant star, she 
C
found the strength to fly
    G            C           
And leaving me behind her, she 
  G               Em  C
vanished in the sky
G            Em            G    
Leaving me behind her, she 
    D      G
vanished in the sky
