The Golden Salamander

[Verse]
    F               C
The bird had silver wings, my 
friends
                        G
And reached out for the sky
   F
It found its wings were broken
       C                 G7
It had lost the right to fly

[Verse]

The pink-eyed salamander
            F               C
Changed her colours for the day
   G                     G7
It changed from white to purest gold
    F                C
And left the stag at bay

[Verse]
               F
Now I am but a poor man
       C             G7
In the apple blossom state

I choose to fly where e'er I please
    F                 C
The stag must needs a mate

[Chorus]
   F
My golden salamander
         D7
You must take me as I am
  G                G7
I cannot change my colours
     F            C    G  G7  F C
I am but a simple man

[Verse]
    F             C
The pink-eyed salamander
                       G
Had become the rite of spring
    F
The silver bird made promises
     C                G7
That scarcely meant a thing

[Verse]

They told the wicked huntsman
          F               C
Where the stag had run to rest
        G          G7
Now the elderly survivor
          F               C
Knew this was not for the best

[Verse]
                 F
He opened up his heart
               C                G7
And prayed for peace for all mankind

He asked a fortune teller
          F                C
But found out that she was blind

[Chorus]
   F
My golden salamander
         D7
You must take me as I am
  G                G7
I cannot change my colours
     F            C    G  G7  F 
I am but a simple man
C   G  G7  F C


[Verse]
    F                   C
The clouds were passing over
                         G
There was little sign of rain
    F
The sun was slowly rising
         C             G7
From its slumber-down again

[Verse]

The stag had run to cover
     F                C
In a copse beside the lake
    G                  G7
The huntsman broke the silence
        F              C
And the birds began to wake

[Verse]
                   F
The fortune teller smiled
          C              G7
As the survivor spoke of fate

He thanked her for her interest
    F               C
But knew it was too late

[Chorus]
   F
My golden salamander
         D7
You must take me as I am
  G                G7
I cannot change my colours
     F            C    G  G7  F 
I am but a simple man
C   G  G7  F C
