Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
There was a king who ruled the land.

Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
His Majesty was in command.

Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
With silver eyes the scarlet eagle

Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
Showered silver on the people.

G D A G D E
Ohhhhh, mother, tell me more.

Why'd you have to leave me there?
Hanging in my infant air, waiting.

You only have to read the lines of scribbly black and ev'rything shines


Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
Across the stream with wooden shoes,

Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
Bells to tell the king the news,

Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
A thousand misty riders climb

Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
Up higher once upon a time.

G D A
Wondering and dreaming.

G D E
The words had different meanings.

A G E F#
Yes, they did.


Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
For all the time spent in that room,

Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
The doll's house darkness, old perfume,

Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
And fairy stories held me high

Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4-9
On clouds of sunlight floating by.

G D A G D E
Ohhhh, mother, tell me more.

A G E
Tell me more.
