[C] How [G] often she has [F] gazed from [Am] castle windows [Em] old
And watched the [Am]
daylight passing [G] within her [Am] captive wall
With [F] no one [G] to heed [Am] her call
The [F]
[Em] [Am]
[C]
[G] evening hour is fading [F]
within the [Am] dwindling sun
[Em]
And in a [Am] lonely moment [G]
those embers will [Am] be gone
And [F] the last [G] of all the young [Am] birds flown
[Dm] Her [Em]
[Am]
[C] days [G] of precious freedom [F] forfeited [Am] long before
[Em] To live such [Am]
fruitless years [G] behind a [Am] guarded door
[B] But [F] those [G] days will [Am] last no more
