E           A/E                 
Icy wind of night be gone. This is 
E
not your domain.

             A/E                 E
In the sky a bird was heard to cry.

A                             D/A
Misty morning whisperings and 
                   E
gentle stirring sound

         A/E             E
Belied a deathly silence that lay 
all around.


A                        G   
Hear the lark and harken to the 
           F#m           E
barking of the dog-fox gone to 
ground.

A                        G       
See the splashing of the 
   F#m             E
kingfisher flashing to the water.

      A                 G     
And a river of green is sliding 
    F#m              E
unseen beneath the trees,

A                                 
Laughing as it passes through the 
G              F#m            E
endless summer making for the sea.


E            A/E        E
In the lazy water meadow I lay me 
down.

                 A/E          
All around me golden sunflakes 
 E
settle on the ground.

A                          D/A
Basking in the sunshine of a by-gone
 afternoon,

E                  A/E         E
Bringing sounds of yesterday into 
this city doom.


A                        G   
Hear the lark and harken to the 
           F#m           E

All around me golden sunflakes

covering the ground.
