Glimmering Girl

Em   D   C   D  G Em   D   A   Em

[Verse]

                  D
I went out to the hazel wood
          Am             Em
Because a fire was in my head
                     D
And cut and peeled a hazel wand
             Am         Em
And hooked a berry to a thread

[Verse]

    G                     D
And when white moths were on the wing
    Em                              B7
And moth-like stars were flickering out
  Em                D
I dropped the berry in a stream
             Am            Em     D   A   Em
And caught a little silver trout

[Verse]

                   D
When I had laid it on the floor
          Am              Em
I went to blow the fire a-flame
                      D
But something rustled on the floor
            Am              Em
And someone called me by my name

[Verse]

   G            D
It had become a glimmering girl
     Em                   B7
With apple blossom in her hair
    Em                D
Who called me by my name and ran
          Am                      Em
And faded through the brightening air

Em   D   C   D   Em  x2

[Verse]

                     D
Though I am old with wandering
               Am              Em
Through hollow lands and hilly lands
                      D
I will find out where she has gone
             Am                Em
And kiss her lips and take her hands

[Verse]

    G               D
And walk among long dappled grass
    Em                            B7
And pluck till time and times are done
    Em                   D
The silver apples of the moon
           Am            Em
The golden apples of the sun
