Tree Rings

           Asus2                    Dm
It was the first to the tellings of all of the fellings
    F                   Em          G
The axes swings and the bite of the blade
Dm       F
13 wings bind the forest kings
       Asus2
As the doorway opens into the shade
    Asus2                      Dm
You calm down the swallows and we wore their wings
F                     Em          G
Followed that path to all that it brings
      Dm             F
As we counted, oh we counted
           Asus2
A thousand tree rings

[Chorus]
        C       Dm                Asus2
And the time of dreaming has come
       C        G      F               C
In the dance of night, calling for the light
     C       Dm                Asus2
Of a million moons, a thousand tree rings

[Verse 2]
     Asus2
The lonely crow called
        Dm
And the dark wood barked
        F                       Em         G
And the yew buried floor in the sun of the lark
       Dm
In the memory of water
      F
Sea unwalked and unsaid
  Asus2
Untrodden, unbidden, unmade in our beds
        Asus2                       Dm
See the bark never trodden, and the axe never swung
    F                               Em         G
The dreams that we've had since the battle was won
  Dm
A haunting, a blaze
      F
Seven cloaks never worn
           Asus2
A thousand tree rings
       Dm             F
And we counted, oh we counted
           Asus2
A thousand tree rings

[Chorus]
        C       Dm                Asus2
And the time of dreaming has come
       C        G      F               C
In the dance of night, calling for the light
     C       Dm                Asus2
Of a million moons, a thousand tree rings
        C       Dm                Asus2
And the time of dreaming has come
       C        G      F               C
In the dance of night, calling for the light
     C       Dm                Asus2
Of a million moons, a thousand tree rings
