[Verse 1]
A On the shore of the lake, the old man sat and watched a woman bathing G With its golden touch the light was such, that the moment was worth saving
[Chorus)
D G And he sang the song of the lake, the song of the lake D G And all the king's horses and all; oh never mind, never mind
[Verse 2]
A And he knew that he would dissolve, if he followed her into the lake G D But also knew that if he remained upon the shore, he would in time evaporate
[Chorus]
G He sang the song of the lake - the song of the lake D G And all the king’s horses; oh never mind, never mind
[Verse 3]
A G And knew that even though he had found heaven, such as described in the ancient scrolls D Still he felt the drag of Hell, upon his old and mortal soul
[Chorus]
G And he sang the song of the lake D G And all the king's horses; oh Lord never mind, never mind
[Verse 4]
A For every evil under the sun, if there be one seek it till you find G D For there's either a remedy or there is none and if there is none
[Bridge]
G D N.C. D Never mind, never mind - never mind, never mind, a'ah never mind.. (pause)
[Coda]
G D G O'oh never mind, never mind, oh mind - cause all the king’s horses and all the king's men A G D G Couldn't put us back together again, oh my darling well where will we go? Oh now A G D Oh my darling where do we go? - Ah never mind, never mind - And what do we do now? G A G D Oh never mind, never mind - You oh my sweet darling, never mind
