Intro:

Bm G D x4

Verse 1:
Bm                  G
Running my hands on twine for chord,
  D
a timorous glance from mine to yours
Bm                  G                 D
"Make me a melody," I muttered mousily

Bm                    G
Speak your prose with none to please,
D
weigh your elbows on my knees
Bm                 G
As uttered several times before:
D

"Rhyme with your truth, ne'er to foreswore."

Pre-Chorus:
Bm              G                D
 To be drawn to you is a kindness,
D
steadily strumming just to remind us

Spoken:
Bm              G D
 Give me a word!
D
  perfect!

Chorus:
Bm       G            D
Hearken, hearken for a while,
Bm       G             D
Hearken, hearken for a while

         Bm             G
We could sway above the meadows
       D
as our riddles rest beneath,
       Bm          G
As our verses hide away,
         D
we could say, "Let it be."

Verse 2:
Bm                     G                D
 Does your heart, too, whistle a wonder?
D                                 Bm
If the past is wed with the future,
Bm           G
is the now a chance or a passage
D
only to be walked upon?

Bm              G
 And if that is what they are after,
D                                Bm
solely to foretell or to remember,
Bm               G
it is us who are left above bedding,
D
borrowing breaths, bothered not by an ending

Bm
Pa, la, la, la,
G
Pa, la, la, la,
D
Pa, la, la, la, la, la

Bridge:
   Bm       G
Forget your voice,
   D
forget your mind
    Bm               G
For when they find a way to wander,
D
we will let it all

Chorus:
Bm       G            D
Hearken, hearken for a while,
Bm       G             D
Hearken, hearken for a while

         Bm             G
We could sway above the meadows
       D
as our riddles rest beneath,
Bm             G
I will listen, I will listen,
D
I will let it be

N.C.:
I will-

Bm
Pa, la, la, la,
G
Pa, la, la, la,
D
Pa, la, la, la  (2x)
Bm                  G
Pa, la, la, la, la, la,
G           D
La, la, la, la
D
La, la, la, la

Chorus:
Bm       G
Hearken, hearken,
D
Hearken, hearken,
Bm       G             D
Hearken, hearken for a while

         Bm             G
We could sway above the meadows
       D
as our riddles rest beneath,
       Bm          G
As our verses hide away,
         D
we could say, "Let it be  "
