Dave Cousins - The Shepherd's Song
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
G C G C G C G C
[Verse 1]
G
The heavy air was scented
C
By the disappointed flowers
G
The weatherman had promised them
C
Warm soft summer showers
G
They bowed their weary heads
C G
Resigned to wait a few more hours
Eb Bb
And we walked together in the half-light
Eb Bb
Down secret paths, climbed wooden fences
Eb
Till a dancing meadow
D Eb D Eb D Eb D
Enveloped us within its grassy web
[Verse 2]
G
There was no need for discussion
C
It was surely no disgrace
G
Her soft skin had the texture
C
Of the finest silken lace
G
Waiting moist and trembling
C G
It was just the time and place
Eb Bb
And our woven bodies sang together
Eb Bb
In harmony with understanding
Eb
Till we fell back smiling
D Eb D Eb D Eb D
Rejoicing in the music we had made
[Verse 3]
G
The blood red summer sunset
C
Was a slowly spreading stain
G
That rose behind the bandstand
C
As the shepherd played again
G
We heard his silver trumpet
C G
It had blown away the rain
Eb Bb
And we lay together in the long grass
Eb Bb
Holding hands and making sweet talk
Eb
Till the smell of wood smoke
D Eb D Eb D Eb D
Reminded us that it was time to go
