- Difficulty: Beginner 👶
Key: Bm
🎸 Verse 1:
Gm A# F Gm
I rose and tasted the first breath of spring
Gm F Dm
The mist from the grassy lands rising
Gm A# F Gm
I said to my gray maron "set out on the road"
Gm F Gm
Where the green hills the sun was carressing
Cm F A# Gm
Saw the nest of the blackbird as she took to the air
Gm Dm
Setting off in the direction of raft unfair
Cm F A# Cm
I come with the dawn bringing silver to buy
Cm Gm Dm
Hoping with some good fortune would aid me
🎸 Verse 2:
Gm A# Gm
I rode with the sun; took my feet to an inn
Gm F Dm
Where the talk was of livestock and memories
Gm A# Gm
Where old tales were traded for new ones in turn
Gm F Gm
Where the pipes did lament into the day
Cm F A# Gm
Where the faces were old but the eyes they were good
Gm Dm
They knew the money in your pocket and they'd have it if they could
Cm F A# Cm
Where the grounds of the street sellers wandered around
Cm Dm
Where the fiddler was lost in the noise of the crowd
🎸 Instrumental:
Gm
🎸 Verse 3:
Gm A# Gm
And when business is done you'll a charm for a dram
Gm F Dm
And drink maybe well into the day
Gm A# Gm
But when twilight draws near you will drink your last beer
Gm F Gm
And set up your goods to take away
Cm F A# Gm
And the old mayor of humble and bite up a wind
Gm Dm
As you sleep in your cell with your collar turned in
Cm F A# Cm
And the year will grow old when the traders have gone
Cm Gm Dm
And the blackbird will follow the beat of the sun
