Kashmir

            A              A#  
Oh let the sun beat down upon my 
      B                    C    D
face, stars to fill my dream
         A      A#             
I am a traveler of both time and 
       B                     C    D
space, to be where I have been
            A      A#          
To sit with elders of the gentle 
      B                        C  
race, this world has seldom seen
  D

              A       A#          
They talk of days for which they 
           B                 
sit and wait, and all will be 
   C
revealed

[Verse]
          A         A#      
Talk and song from tongues of 
               B                   
lilting grace, whose sounds caress 
      C    D
my ear
           A      A#         
But not a word I heard could I 
        B                       C 
relate, the story was quite clear
   D

 A A# B C D   A A# B C D

G                    A  G       
All I see turns to brown, as the
                 A
 sun burns the ground
G                  A       G    
And my eyes, fill with sand, as 
              A
I scan, this wasted land
G                                 
Trying to find, trying to find 
         A    A A# B C D  A A# B C D
where I've been

[Verse]
          A       A#              
Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves 
        B                       
no trace, like thoughts inside a 
   C    D
dream
          A        A#             
Heed the path that led me to that 
     B                    C    D
place, yellow desert stream
           A     A#            
My Shangri-La beneath the summer 
      B                     C    D
moon, I will return again
             A         A#         
Sure as the dust that floats high 
       B                          
in June, when movin' through 
C    D
Kashmir

Oh, father of the four winds, fill
         B                    C    D
 my sails, across the sea of years
            A     A#              
With no provision but an open 
B                       C    D
face, along the straits of fear
