[Am]
I went out to [G] the hazel wood,
[C] Because [G] a fire [D] was in [Dm] my head,
[C] And I cut [G] and peeled [Am] a hazel wand, And [G] hooked a berry on [Am] a thread.
And when white moths [G] were on the wing, [C] And moth-like [Dm] stars were flickering out,
I [C] dropped [G] the berry [E] [Am] in a stream, [G] And caught a little [Am] silver trout.
When I had laid
[G] it on the floor, [C] I went [G] to blow [Dm] the fire aflame,
[C] But [G] something [Am] rustled on the floor, And [G] someone called me by [Am] my name.
It had become [G] a glimmering girl, With apple [Dm] blossom in her hair,
[C] Who called [G] me by [Am] my name, and ran, [G] And faded through the [Am] brightening air.
Though I am old [G] with wandering, [C] Through [Em] hollow lands [Dm] and hilly land,
[C] I will find [Am] out where she has gone, In [G] kiss her lips and take [Am] her hand,
And walk among [G]
long dappled grass,
[C]
And [G] pluck till [D] time and times [Dm] are done,
[Em] The silver apples [Am] of the moon, [G] The golden apples [Dm] of the [G] sun.
