Harvest Of The Moon

Biography:

Steeleye Span formed in 1969 from members of Fairport Convention and out of the ashes of Sweeney's Men creating a distinctive fusion of both British folk with electric rock music.

Harvest of the moon
D G D
All the husbands and thier wives we were dancing for our lives all to the
A
tune of Elsie Marley
D G
instead of gathering up our differences and throwing them in the air
D A D
And giving them to the wind that shakes the barley

G D
And the children they were watching every girl and every boy as we danced to
A
the tune of Elsie Marley
D G D
But they'd heard another tune from the harvest of the moon that rides upon
A D
the wind that shakes the barley
G D
Then Bridget she declared that she was not prepared to watch us dance to the
A
tune of Elsie Marley
D G
She said I'll sing you all a song and you'll want to sing along
D A D
If you listen to the wind that shakes the barley

chorus
G D
And the song that she sang could be heard from miles around
Bm A
The air was full of harmony you should've heard the sound
D G
As we gathered up our differences and threw them in the air
D A D
And gave them to the wind that shakes the barley
A D G D A
oooohhhh ooohh ooohhh ooohhh
D G D
All the husbands and thier wives we were dancing for our lives all to the
A
tune of Elsie Marley
D G
Until we gathered up our differences and threw them in the air
D A D
And gave them to the wind that shakes the barley
G D
Then all of us declared that we were not prepared to dance our lives away
A
with Elsie Marley
D G
For we heard another tune from the harvest of the moon
D A D
That rides upon the wind that shakes the barley
G D
And the song that we sang could be heard for miles around
Bm A
The air was full of harmony you should've heard the sound
D G
As we gathered up our differences and threw them in the air
D A
And gave them to the wind that shakes the barley
D A D G D A
oooooh ohhh ooooh
