G              D                      Em             Em
  The River of Doubt gave birth to a, beautiful stone

G                D              Em
And in my hand I held it, and I knew I was on my own,

Em
So I picked it up,

G         D              Em
      And held it to the sky...

G            D           Em
 And in my reflection, I knew I was all alone,

    Em      G                D
Yeah, Yeah...then I saw this girl with the most

Em
  beautiful hair, she had it

G               D          Em
 Wrapped around her, for clothes she did not wear.

G                  D                   Em
 I asked her for a lock, and she complied, after leaving

G                      D            Em
 Gorgeous footsteps in the sand, as if she didn't care.

                    G                 D
Well... She was the prettiest girl I ever saw and

Em                                       C
stone lay still without a flaw, and the feelings I

       G                  D
had to fight the law as I came to, and I went to

      G                   D
And I took a look, a look down the road, to see a

Em                                       C
badger, and a one eyed toad. They didn't say a word,

          G                  D
They just looked at me with that,

                     G D Em   C G D    D
Wise old look of the old...   Yeah...  Wise old look of the

G D Em   C G D
old...   Yeah...

G          D                Em
 And then I went down to town

G          D                Em
 To my favorite, merry-go-Round, to the place

      G     D      Em
where magic horses fly

G        D            Em
 And you seldom see a frown

                     G                 D
But then I stole the ring, from the flying horses,

Em
  and I can't begin to explain how. (Move quickly into the next line)

G                            D
I stole the ring from the flying horses,

Em          C   C   C
  And its all rusty now,

G                            D
I stole the ring from the flying horses,

Em
  And I can't begin to explain now

G                             D
 I stole the ring from the flying horses,

Em            C   C   C
  And its all rusty now,

         D
It's all rusty...

                            G          D                Em
Ya see, cause that stone fell right through my pocket

         G              D                 Em
And that locK of hair blew away with the wind

G            D            Em
If you chance to see upon either, Well...

G        D             Em
You know where they've been.

          G                     D       Em
But don't pick them up or try to find me

Em
We're much happier to be on our own

G               D        Em
Beauty like that knows, no

           G                    D
And if you take a look, a look down the road

              Em
You'll see a badger and a one eyed toad

                 C                                      G                    D
They won't say a word they'll just look at you with that, wise old look of

    G D Em C G D
the old... Yeah…

                                G D Em  C G D
Wise old look of the old... Yeah....
