The Silky Veils Of Ardor chords by Joni Mitchell

Intro:
C   F
F7  Bbsus4

Verse:
    Fm       C9
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
Fm    Cmaj7       Bb9
Traveling through all these highs and lows
           F
I heard there was no sickness
Ab       Bb
And no toil or danger
        F
Just mercy and plenty
           Fm
Where peaceful waters flow
        C9
Where peaceful waters flow

Interlude:
C   F
F7  Bbsus4

Verse:
      Fm        C9
Come all you fair and tender school girls
Fm     Cmaj7     Bb9
Be careful now--when you court young men
         F
They are like the stars
Ab     Bb
On a summer morning
          F
They sparkle up the night
      Fm
And they're gone again
     C9
Daybreak--gone again

Interlude:
C   F
F7  Bbsus4


Verse:
      Fm               C9
If I'd only seen through the silky veils of ardor
Fm       Cmaj7    Bb9
What a killing crime this love can be
              F
I would have locked up my heart
Ab          Bb
In a golden sheath of armor
          F
And kept its crazy beating
        Fm
Under strictest secrecy
    C9
High security

Interlude:
C   F
F7  Bbsus4


Verse:
         Fm
I wish I had the wings
            C9
Of Noah's pretty little white dove
      Fm       Cmaj7
So I could fly this raging river
  Bb9
To reach the one I love
       F
But I have no wings
Ab         Bb
And the water is so wide
              F
We'll have to row a little harder
       Fm
It's just in dreams we fly
    C9
In my dreams we fly!
