Chords

[Verse 1]
F#m              E
Dreamed I had a cutting stone

E                 F#m
Dreamed I held it all my own

F#m                   E
It cut through wire, wood, and bone

      E               F#m
I'll cut you down, my cutting stone
[Chorus]
 A                E
[tab]  E              F#m
Whether wild or whether won

 A               E
Though I travel far from home

        E            F#m
I'll always have my cutting stone
[Verse 2]
F#m            E
Wandering, I chanced upon

E                F#m
A wayward child lost anon

F#m                E
And when he laid across my chest

E                   F#m
My cutting stone it did the rest
[Chorus]
 A                E
Cutting stone oh fear me none

  E              F#m
Whether wild or whether won

 A               E
Though I travel far from home

        E            F#m
I'll always have my cutting stone
[Verse 3]
F#m           E
In a valley green and wide

E                    F#m
A suitor wept for a dying bride

F#m                      E
And when he turned his eyes on me

E                    F#m
A cutting stone did set him free
[Chorus]
 A                E
Cutting stone oh fear me none

  E              F#m
Whether wild or whether won

 A               E
Though I travel far from home

        E            F#m
I'll always have my cutting stone
[Chorus]
 A                E
Cutting stone oh fear me none

  E              F#m
Whether wild or whether won

 A               E
Though I travel far from home

        E            F#m
I'll always have my cutting stone
[Verse 4]
F#m             E
There upon a mountaintop

E                    F#m
I looked down on to what I'd wrought

F#m                 E
And when I saw my labors through

E                 F#m
I cut my cutting stone in two
[Chorus]
 A                E
Cutting stone oh fear me none

  E              F#m
Whether wild or whether won

 A               E
Though I travel far from home

        E            F#m
I'll always have my cutting stone

        E             F#m
I'll always have my cutting stone

      E                 F#m
I'll cut you down, my cutting stone
