C                               F                 C
Oh I have lived for ages, I'm a thousand turns of tides,

      C                 Am7               F               C
I'm a thousand wakes of springtime, and a thousand infant cries -

G                     C
Oh, a thousand infant cries...
[Verse 2]
C                                       F              C
I've got sixteen-hundred tigers now all tied to silver strings,

          C               Am7               F                 C
When they pull out in the pasture - Oh, the mighty heart will sing!

        G                 C
Oh, the mighty heart will sing!
[Chorus]
G                                                       Am
But I'll always be blamed for the sun goin' down with a song.

            F            C         G           C
But I'm the light in the middle of every man's fall.
[Verse 3]
C                                     F                C
I bend my arrows now in circles and I shoot around the hill,

           C              Am7            F              C
If I don't get you in the mornin' by the evenin' I sure will,

       G                     C
By the evenin'... Oh, I sure will!
[Verse 4]
C                                           F              C
Cause I'm the fire on the mountain you have lit up in your dreams,

         C            Am7               F              C
But also water on the fountain, you can set my self on me,

        G              C
You can set my self on me.

G                                                       Am
But I'll always be blamed for the sun goin' down with a song.

            F            C         G           C
But I'm the light in the middle of every man's fall.

         C                                   F                C
And no I never meant to say these words, but yes you ought to know,

         C                    Am7             F             C
That the dark ain't what I've always been, it will not ever go,

       G             C
No, it will not ever go.

    C                                 F                 C
For so I've lived a thousand years, a thousand turns of tides,

       C                               F                C
Just a thousand leaves in Autumn and a thousand ways to try

Oh a thousand, it's just a thousand ways to try
