[Bm]
As I rode out one morning, [D] just as the day was dawning, [A] I gave my usual greeting to [Bm] the sun.
To seek my inspiration, [D] I knew my destination, [A] a standing stone down where the river [Bm] runs.
[G] Seeing no one else [D] in sight, I sat [A] down to write, but I was not [Bm] alone.
[G] The sun a little colder, [D] a hand upon my shoulder, [A] a shadow fell across the [Bm] ancient stone.
[B]
He [Bm] 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.
[G] He never would [D] forget how his true love [A] he met at a [Bm] county fair.
[G] Of land by the sea, a [D] Cambridge shirt with no seams, [A] and a life they would never [Bm] share.

thought they'd be together [D] to live their lives forever, [A] but realized that he would soon [Bm] be gone.
Behind doors that were closing from [D] the will we were imposing on [A] the land we depend [Bm] upon.
[G] Their story will [D] be sung for many years [A] to come, but we reap what we [B] have [Bm] sown.
[G] Two broken hearts, [D] two worlds torn apart from the [A] day we made iron [Bm] from stone.
