The Minstrel

      G              D
Kind Sirs, Lovely ladies
      Em
This tale you'll enjoy
         G                D
of the way love once started
    Cadd9           D  3/8
between maid and boy.
      Em           Bm7
It began on an evening
        C   D       Em
where feasting was done.
           C            D
Here our lover's encountered
                    Em
and this tale has begun.

verse 2
        G          D            
As the lad looked around him with 
   Em
wandering eyes
      G            D        Cadd9
he beheld there a lady her look 
           D   3/8
like the skies
        Em             Bm7        
As the sun seemed to bless her 
    C     D      Em
with flames in her gaze
             C         D          
't was this wonderful vision that 
                Em
filled him with praise.

verse 3
     G                D        
His mouth longed to speak of the 
   Em
fire in his soul
         G          D        
to this beautiful maiden of 
Cadd9     D
virtues untold.
      Em             Bm7        C
But before he could utter the 
   D        Em
words on his mind
         C         D              
she had gone away, vanished and 
          Em
left him behind.

verse 4
       G              D         
As he caught himself staring, his 
   Em
eyes open wide,
        G           G             
gazing down at the place where she
  Cadd9         D     3/8
 fled from his sight
    Em         Bm7/E      C/E    
He decided to seek her a quest 
       Em
for his love.
      C/E           D             
So he gathered his valour and soon
         Em
 he set off

verse 5
       Em         Em/F#        
For a day and a full night he 
Em/G        Em/A Em/B
rode and he sought
       Em       Em/F#           
asking all he encountered where 
Em/G          Em/A
his love was brought.
        Em              Em/F#     
By the trail that they showed him 
    Em/F      Em/A Em/B
he wandered along,
            Em        Em/F#     
't was her image that led him and 
   Em/G          Em/A
kept his love strong.

verse 6
      G              D         Em
Kind Sirs, lovely Ladies, our tale 
is at end
           G                D     
Did they spend their lived loving,
    Cadd9          D
 or is their love spent?
         Em           Bm7     
Love is found by the seeker and 
    C    D      Em
wants to be sought.
        C                D        
May the Lord guard your pathways 
       Em
as you seek what he's stored.
