Chords for The Shepherd's Song - Strawbs

_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
[A] The heavy air was scented by the [D] disappointed [A] flowers
The weatherman had promised them [D] warm, soft summer [E] showers
They bowed their weary heads, resigned to wait a few more [A] hours _ _
_ [E] _ [F] And we walked together _
_ _ In [C] the half _ _ _ -light
Down [F] secret _ _ _ paths
Climbed wooden fences
_ _ _ To the [F] dancing _ meadow
_ _ _ In [E] van of dust, within its _ [F] _ [Em] crafty web
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ There was [A] no need for discussion
[D] It was surely [A] no disgrace
Her [A] soft skin had the texture [D] of the finest [A] silken lace
Waiting, moist and trembling, it was [D] just the time [A] and _ _ place
_ _ [F] And our woven bodies _ _ _ [C] sang together
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] In harmony _ _ _ with [C]
understanding
_ _ _ _ Till we fell [F] like _ _ _ _ smilings _
[E] Rejoicing in [F] the music we [E] had made
Blood [F] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[B] _ [E] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [A]-red summer sunset was a slowly spreading stain
It rose behind the bandstand as the shepherd played again
We heard his silver trumpet, he had blown away the rain
_ _ _ _ And [F] we lay together
_ _ _ _ In the [C] long _ _ _ grass Holding _ _ hands
_ _ And [C] making sweet _ _ _ songs
Till the [F] smell of _ wood's love _ _
_ [E] Reminded us that [F] it was time
