[A] [G] [Dm] Mmmm,
[Em] [A] mmm,
[G] [Dm] mmm, [Em] mmmmm
How [Am] [C]
often [G] she has gazed [F] From [Am] castle windows [Em] all
And watched [F] the daylight [G] passing Within [Am] her captive wall
[C] With [Dm] no one [Em] to heed [Am] her call
[G] [Dm] [Em]
[Am]
[C] The evening [G] hour is fading [F]
within the [Am] dwindling sun
[Em] And [F] in a lonely moment [G] those embers [Am] will be gone
And [Dm] the last [Em] of all the young [Am] birds flown
[C] [Dm] [Em] Days
[Am] [C] [G] of precious freedom [F] [Am] forfeited long [Em] before
To live [F] such fruitless years [G]
behind [Am] guarded door
[G]
[Dm] But those [Em] days will [Am] last no more
[C] Tomorrow at [G] this hour [F]
she will [Am] be far away
[Em]
Much farther [F] than these islands [G] or the lonely [Am] fathering gay
[C] [D] [Dm] [Am]
