[Verse 1]
  G                         C
Spirit of my silence I can hear you

                      D
But I’m afraid to be near you

              C    G        C
And I don’t know where to begin

              Am   G        C
And I don’t know where to begin

  G                                C
Somewhere in the desert there’s a forest

               D
And an acre before us

              C    G        C
But I don’t know where to begin

              Am   G        C
But I don’t know where to begin
[Bridge 1]
                                 D
Again I’ve lost my strength completely,

       C
oh be near me,

 G          C                         Am       G      C
Tired old mare with the wind in your hair
[Verse 2]
  G                          C
Amethyst and flowers on the table,

                 D
is it real or a fable?

           C       G           C
Well I suppose a friend is a friend

            Am   G             C
And we all know how this will end

  G                                 C
Chimney swift that finds me, be my keeper

                   D
Silhouette of the cedar

              C        G            C
What is that song you sing for the dead?

              Am       G            C
What is that song you sing for the dead?
[Bridge 2]
                                D
I see the signal searchlight strike me

        C     G      C
in the window of my room

                       Am       G      C
Well I got nothing to prove

                       Am       G      C
Well I got nothing to prove
[Solo] G C D C G C Am G C [Verse 3]
  G                           C
I forgive you, mother, I can hear you

                  D
And I long to be near you

           C    G           C
But every road leads to an end

            Am   G          C
Yes every road leads to an end
[Bridge 3]
                          D
Your apparition passes through me

        C
in the willows:

 G        C                          Am       G      C
Five red hens—you’ll never see us again

                     Am       G      C
You’ll never see us again
