Merlin

Am
It's not so dark in the cave tonight
@G$                                      @F$
Just over here there's a crack of 
  F
light
  E             Am
Tomorrow is the day
Am
I heard the voices coming through 
the wall,
They're 
G                                
digging for a brand new shopping 
    F
mall
E                        Am
Just knocked off for the day

[Verse 2]
Am
It's late at night and the stars are
 deep
G                           F
I'm okay I don't need sleep
           E                      
I've been sleeping for quite some 
Am
time
Am
I'm ready to dance with the devil's 
daughter
G                             F
I don't need to walk on water
       E                      Am
When I know that I can run on wine

[Verse 3]
Am
There's voices humming through the 
ground
G                             F
Spirits kick old bones around
    E             Am
The wind picks up again
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
Am
The ocean roars, it's time to wait
G                               F
The lion roars at heaven's gate
        E                  Am
The forest people call my name

[Verse 4]
Am
They call me names I never 
understood
@G$                                       @F$
I am the spirit of the wind and the 
  F
wood
                     E             
I am the name in the writing on the
 Am
 wall
Am
I don't know when and I don't know 
how
      G
But I do know I'm much stronger now
       F
And I wouldn't have woke
      E               Am
if I hadn't heard you call

[Verse 5]
Am
I remember the day they put me here
The 
G                                  F
workmen wrapped in masks of fear
       E              Am
Slowly rolling in the stone
Am
They nailed my hands to a rowan 
tree.
They 
G                                  F
burned my body and they blinded me
    E               Am
And buried me here alone.

[Verse 6]
Am
Arthur kissed my bloodied eyes
      G                            
Said "You will live and we will die
 F

             E           Am
But you will harm nobody here"
Am
Over his shoulder, high on the hill
   G                             F
I see her laughing, waiting still
    E            Am
The lovely Guinevere

[Verse 7]
Am
Arthur cursed when he saw my smile
The sun 
G                               F
went dark and the wind went wild
   E             Am
He put me in this place
Am
For years I've slept in this holy 
park
G
Slowly healing in the dark
       F             
I can hardly wait to 
E                 Am
see that workman's face
