Enthralled was I, so enthralled was I,

As [F] I walked the woods and the mountains high,
[Bb]
All in the [C] morning [F] early.

Then [Eb] coming from [Bb] a nurn nearby,
[Ab] [C] I heard the sound of a baby crying.
I [Eb] paused a while [Bb] and I gazed inside,
[C] The cry was mine, the babe, the babe [F] was I.

All [C] in the noon time [F]
early.

[F] Then [Eb] coming from [Bb] an old mash [Ab] tun,
[C] I heard the sound of a young man come.

[Bb] All in the [C] evening [F] gloomy.

Then [Eb] coming from
[Bb] a broken throne,

Oh [Bbm] yes, they moaned [Cm] and came [F] and cried,
And we raised their voices in [Ab] dark [Bb] triad.
[Cm] [Fm] [Bb] Sing the [Cm] music of [F] our tethered sphere,
As only [Ab] silence [Bb] failing.
[Ab] [Bb] [Bb]
Yes it's mere [Cm] distraction, [F] mere veneer,
While we wait the grape [Ab] on [Bb] veiling.
[Cm] [Fm]
I said [Bb] this song [C] you've all [F] been dying to hear,
As only silence [Ab] [Bb] failing.
[Cm] [Fm]
