There was a king who ruled the land.

  Bsus4 Asus4 G6  F#7sus4
His Majesty was in command.

   Bsus4 Asus2  G6   F#7sus4 Bsus4 Asus2 G6   F#7sus4
With silver eyes the scarlet eagle showered silver on the people.

G  D  A    G  D E
Oh____, mother, tell me more.

N.C.
Why'd you have to leave me there,

             B
Hanging in my infant air, waiting?

N.C.
You only have to read the lines of scribbly black and ev'rything shines.


 Bsus4   Asus2    G6   F#7sus4
Across the stream with wooden shoes,

Bsus4  Asus2  G6    F#7sus4
Bells to tell the king the news,

 Bsus4  Asus2 G6   F#7sus4 Bsus4 Asus2 G6  F#7sus4
A thousand misty riders climb up higher once upon a time.

G   D    A
Wondering and dreaming.

  G     D     E
The words have different meanings.

A  G  E    F#
Yes, they did.


  Bsus4  Asus4   G6   F#7sus4
Of all the time spent in that room,

  Bsus4    Asus2   G6   F#7sus4
The doll's house darkness, old perfume,

  Bsus4 Asus2  G6   F#7sus4 Bsus4   Asus2     G6 F#7sus4
And fairy stories held me high on clouds of sunlight floating by.

G  D  A    G  D E
Oh____, mother, tell me more.

A  G E
Tell me more. (fade out to finish)
