_ [Em] The
_ dense [Bm] forest of tall dark pine [Em] woods, Mount [F#] Hyder rises [B] like an island.
_ Within [Em] our hidden _ _ cave, [Bm] Nymphs have kept a _ [Em] child,
_ _ _ [F#] _ Omavroditus, [B]
son of gods, so [Am] afraid of their [Em] _
[Am] love.
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ _ _ As [Am] the dawn creeps up [Em] the sky, The hunter [Am] caught sight of a [D] dove.
[Em] _ In _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ [Em] _ one quest, he found [F#] himself within [Am] a glade he'd [Em] not been _ before.
[G] _ _
_ When he heard of my _ _ father, _ _ _ _ [C] he was scared as [D] I was. _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ [Em] And [A] as his strength began to [Em] fail, he saw the _
_ [Am] _ _ shimmering light. _
[Em] _ _ A [C] _ shadow [Am] _
in [Em] the dark green depths _ disturbed [Am] the strange _
[Em] _ _ tranquility.
_ _ [G] _ _
The waters are _ _ disturbed, _ _ and [C] the sun preacher [D] has been _ _ stoned. _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ _ he rushed [Bm] to quench his thirst, [Em] _ a [B] fountain spring appeared before him.
And as [Em] his heated _ breath [Bm] brushed through the cool mist,
[Em] _
a liquid [F#] voice [B] called, son of gods, drink [Am] from my _ spring.
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ Water [Am] _ _ tasted _ [Em] strangely sweet, _ _ behind him [Am] the voice called again.
[Em] He turned and _ [F#] saw [Am] her [Em] in a globe of mist alone.
And as he gazed, [F#] her eyes were filled [Em] with the darkness of the late _ [G] _ moon.
We shall be one. _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] We shall be [D] one. _ _ _ _ _ _

_ [F#] _ _ [G#m] from me, cold-blooded [D#m] one, your [G#m] thirst [C#m] is not [E] _ mine.
_ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Nothing [G#m] will cause us [D#m] to [G#m] part, hear me, [C#m] oh [G#m] _

[E] _ And then their flesh and bones [B] were strangely _ _ merged, _ [G#] _ forever [C#m] to [A] be joined [D] as one.

_ _ _ _ [C] The [Am] creature crawled into the lake, [Em] a fading _ _ [Am] _ voice _ was _ [Em] heard.
_ And I begged, [Am] yes I begged, [Em] with all who trust this spring, may it [Am] shed _ _ _ [Em] our fate.
