[Verse]
Bm            D
Moon rise and star fall
A             F#m        G
Fire burn and night wind call
Bm            D
Drum beat the wild song
     A              F#m      Bm  
That heart sings at summer's dawn
   A F#


Bm           D
Sown are the new fields
      A             F#m       G
With bright seed of harvest's yield
Bm           D
Far down the roots bind
    A              F#m      Bm
The heart's joy to summer's time

[Bridge]
Em                 D
Leave the fire and come with me
      F#m             A         G
We'll lie beneath the flowering tree
    Em                 G
And feel the breathing of the earth
D          A
Rise and fall

    Em                   D
The green time sings its song again
   F#m               A        G
To wake the hill, to wake the glen
    Em             G
And raise in every living thing
   D         Em
An answering call

Bm            D
Leap o'er the May fire
A               F#m   G
Hold close your sweet desire
    Bm                D
For life's wheel will grant soon
    A                F#m      Bm 
The heart's wish for summer's 
    Em
bloom


Bm              D
Green shoot and pale flower
A           F#m     G
Garland the Beltane bower
Bm          D
Circle with joined hands
    A                 F#m      Bm
For heart shines with summer's dance

[Bridge]
Em                 D
Leave the fire and come with me
   F#m             A        G
To walk beside the dreaming sea
    Em               G
And watch the fading of the stars
       D       A
As the new day dawns

      Em                D
We'll try to catch time in our hands
   F#m            A          G
To hold the wave against the sand
    Em               G
And watch this glow upon the land
     D            Em
That soon will be gone

[Verse]
   Bm            D
So drum beat and flute sound
A               F#m    G
Once more we'll circle 'round
        Bm                  D
For the world turns and the wheel 
spins
    A             F#m    Bm
And all ends that once begins

     Bm              D
This green hour, the heart knows,
   A            F#m     G
Is brief as the budding rose
       Bm             D
Though wheel turn and bloom fade
    A     Em        A        Bm
The heart sings the birth of May
