As I rode out one _ morning, [D] just as the day was dawning, [A] I gave my usual greeting to [B] [Bm] the sun. _ _ _ _

[A] A standing stone down where the [Bm] river runs, _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ seeing no one [D] else in sight,
_ I sat [A] down to write, but I was [Bm] not alone. _ _ _ _ _
[G] The sun a little colder, _
[D] a hand upon my shoulder, _
[A] a shadow fell across the [Bm] ancient _ stone. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
He asked what I was writing, [D] it sounded so inviting. _
[A] I said I'd just tell _ stories [Bm] with song. _ _ _
The melody _ _ compelling, said [D] he had a tale worth telling, _
[A] _ promised that it wouldn't take [Bm] too long. _ _ _ _ _

_ _ Behind _ doors that were closing from [D] the will we were imposing on [A] the land _ _ we depend [Bm] _ upon. _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ Their story [D] will be sung _ for many years [A] to come, but we reap what we [Bm] have sown.
_ _ Two _ _
[G] _ _ _ broken hearts, [D]
