[Verse]
A G D Em What in the world do the old bard need? A G F#m Em D Ears to hear and the soul to heed Em Roof from the snow and the quiet craic A D Bit of a blanket to his back A G D Ears to hear and the soul to heed A D That do be, what the old bard need
[Verse]
A G D Em What in the world do the old bard need? A G F#m Em D Ears to hear and the strength to heed Em Dab of tin for a night of work A G A D Glim of the lamp, stave off the dark A G D Ears to hear and the strength to heed A D That do be, what the old bard need
[Verse]
A G D Em Soft dark wind in the hemlock-night A G F#m Em D Tap of the rain on the shingle tight Em Southeast wind in the bending reed A D Cup of the warm for the body's need A G D Ears to hear and a tear to weep A D And he'll be tucking him off to sleep
[Verse]
A G D Em But what would you do for the old one's heart? A G F#m Em D A song or a tale of your own, to start Em The quiet word by the shifting fire A D Words of your own dear heart's desire A G D For the cares of the one are the cares of us all A D Your heart gives heart to another soul
[Verse]
A G D Em Then, when the old path climbs again A G F#m Em D Threads of wonder, wish and pain Em He'll be weaving, the road along A D And you'll be the fabric of the song A G D Ears to hear and a soul to heed A D These for sure, do the old bard need A G D Ears to hear and a soul to heed A D These for sure, do the old bard need
