D C G D6

[Verse 1]
D                   C
A thousand years or so is said
G                  D6
Gentle breeze of a flowering bed
D                    C
Children and fairies chattering secrets in pretty ears
G            D6
Gone are the years
D                     C
Gone are the years of sorrow and pain
G              D6
Gone are those years

[Verse 2]
D           C
Barefoot in clean white sand
G                     D6
A kiss on the lips, a kiss on the hand
D6                 C6
Happy to be alive Happy to be alive
G             D6
Happy to be a-live
