#1.
GbmGbm        B minorBm       GbmGbm
And is it so, once more thou art returning?
GbmGbm        B minorBm      GbmGbm
Hast thou lost thy way as once before?
 B minorBm
I warned thee more than many times, thus would

it be.

I shall not be thy refuge once more.

CHORUS:
B minorBm       E MajorE          A augmentedA
Thou makest me free then soon thou makest demands
  GbmGbm
on me.
B minorBm    E MajorE         A augmentedA       DbDb
And I am not thy love, thou workest in me, slavery.
GbmGbm             E MajorE  B minorBm
But I shan't hear thee as before.

I prithee, do not ask for love once more.

So, go thy way, and soon I shall go likewise.
GbmGbm        B minorBm         GbmGbm
And if thy path be high, then be mine low.
 B minorBm
Behold my footsteps in the sand, but follow not.
DbDb GbmGbm        B minorBm      DbDb
For soon they will be covered with snow.

CHORUS:

Thou makest me free then soon thou makest demands
  GbmGbm
on me.

But I shan't hear thee as before.
