Capo: 3rd Fret



INTRO: C  D  G  C  D

G     C     G         C
Sweet Kate, open your gate
       G     D      G    C  D
Here I stand in the wind
G     C     G          C
Threadbare, snow in my hair
      G    D    G     G/F#
How I need you again
    Em              Bm
For lone stalks the hunter's moon
Em             Bm    D7
Time takes her toll
G     C       G        C
Love, please, mercy on me
       G    D         G    C  D
And my poor wandering soul

G         C         G        C
Love is a star that will not shine
         G       D    G       C  D
'Til the hour of your return
G           C       G       C
I count the days in cups of wine
        G       D      G      G/F#
And the candles I have burned
Em                     Bm
And sunrise comes only when I am far away
   Em                               Bm     D7
In dreams or when the black thunder rolls, oh oh
  G      C       G       C
I cannot save my own sad heart
         G          D         G     G/F#
Nor your poor, poor wandering soul


BRIDGE:
Em                         Bm
I heard the grey wolf sing her serenade at night
        C             D               G    G/F#
But you never held me by the light of day
Em                             Bm
I climbed the redwood tree and caught the wren in flight
        Am                 Em              C                D
But her wings were soft as morning and the morning slipped away


INSTRUMENTAL:   (## same as Verse ##)


G     C     G         C
Sweet Kate, open your gate
       G     D      G    C  D
Here I stand in the wind
G     C     G          C
Threadbare, snow in my hair
      G    D   G     G/F#
How I need you again
    Em              Bm
For lone stalks the hunter's moon
Em             Bm    D7
Time takes her toll
G     C       G        C
Love, please, mercy on me
       G    D         Em
And my poor wandering soul


G         C         G        C

'Til the hour of your return
G           C       G       C
I count the days in cups of wine
        G       D      G      G/F#
And the candles I have burned
Em                     Bm
And sunrise comes only when I am far away
   Em                               Bm     D7
In dreams or when the black thunder rolls
  G      C       G       C
I cannot save my own sad heart
               G    D         Em
Nor your poor, poor wandering soul


         C
Open the gate, love
        Am
So many candles
                        Bm       Em
Suddenly morning slips away from me
        C         D         Em
And the wax heart weeps and blisters
         Am      D        Em
And it's burning where he kissed her
        C                  D7               G
And the ghost of lost love whispers, "Sweet Kate..."
