Chords for John Denver - "Isabel" (1970)

_ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ Isabel is [G] waiting _ in a room [D] of many [G] shadows
_ [Em] Her eyes like [Am] flashing diamonds _ [C] shining brightly _ from the _ sea
Her hair in silken tresses _ [D] like a rope around her shoulder
Her hair _ [Em] hiding _ tantalizing [Am]
treasures _ [C] that the song has [G] never _ _ _ seen _ _ _
Isabel [A] is watching _ like a princess from [G] the mountains
[Em] For the first soft snows [Am] of winter _ [C] and the icy _ [G] winds they bring
With a whisper of her sadness _ [D] in the passing [G] of summer
_ [Em]
Her crown is wild [Am] red roses _ [C] with a lace of [G] forest green _ _
_ _ [Bb] And she wraps her [D] arms around me [G] and she sighs _ _
_ And [Bb] she sings to me [D] in silence [G] with her _ _ eyes
_ _ [Em] And her hair upon [A] my pillow _ [D] comforts _ [C] me
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ Isabel is weeping _ and her eyes are full of wonder
_ [Em] She knows that [Am] it's the time for her [C] and she cannot _ _ [G]
understand
_ _ She's a mistress of moonlight [D] to the stars she [G] is a sister
_ [Em] And the morning now [A]
awaits [Am] her [C] to betray her [G] once again
_ _ _ _ [Bb] And she whispers as [D] she sadly _ [G] slips away
_ _ _ _ Then [Bb] she smiles because [D] there's nothing left [G] to say
_ _ _ _ And [Em] she takes with her [A] the sadness and [D] the sorrow
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [D] _
