Come _ _ [G] away, _ _ human [D] child, _ to [Em] the water _ _ Come _ _ _ _ away, [G] _ _ _ human child, _ _ to the [Em] water _
And the wild, _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ like a fairy [Bm] hand in hand [Am] _ For _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ [Bm] the world's more full of [Am] weeping
_ And you [C] can't well stand
_ _ [G] Where dips the rocky [F#m] highland _ _ [Em] _ Of slothwood and the lake _ _ _
_ [G] There lies the leafy island [F#m] _ Where [Em] flapping horns _ wake the drowsy water rats _
_ _ _ [Bm] There we hid our [Am] fairy fats _ _ _ _ _ _ For our berries _ [C] and _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ the [Am]
reddest stolen [C] cherries
_ Come [G] away, _ _ human child, _
_ [D] to [Em] the water _ Come _ _ _ _ _ _ away, _ human [F#m] child, _ _ to the [Em] water
_ And the wild, _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
like [G] a fairy hand in hand _ [Am] _
For _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ the [Bm]
world's more full [Am] of weeping _
And you can't [C] well stand
_ _ [G]
Where _ _ _ [G#m] the wave of moonlight [Em] glosses The dim grey sands with light
_ _ [G] Far off by furthest [F#m] glosses _ _ We've [Em] footed all the night, we've ennoled in dances
_ _ [C] Mingling hands and mingling [Bm] glances Till the moon has taken [Am] flight _
[G#] To and fro [Am] we leap, _ _ [C] chasing fucky bubbles [Bm] While the world is full of troubles
[Am] _ And is anxious in [C] its sleep
_ Come [G] away, _ _ human child, _ [D] _ to [Em] the water _ Come _ _ _ _ _ away, [G] _ _ human child, _ _ [F#m] to the water
[Em] _
_ And the wild, _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ like a [G] fairy hand in hand [Am] _ _ For _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ the [Bm] world's more full of [Am] weeping
_ _ And you [C] can't well stand
_ _ [G] Where _ _ the wandering [D] water pushes _ [Em]
From the hills above Glingkar _
And _ _ _ [D] pools among the rushes That scarce could [Em] bathe the star _
We seek for slumbering [C] trout And whispering in their [Bm] ears _
We give [Am] them ink-white dreams _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] Leaning softly out from [B] furs
That drop their [Am] tears _ over the young [C]
streaks

_ _ [G] _ _ Away with us [F#m] he is _ _ going, [Em] _ the solemn might _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
He'll hear no more the [F#m] lowing _ _
_ [Em] Of the calves on a warm _ hillside _ _ _ _ [C] Or the kickle on the hob
_ [Bm] _ _ _ [Am]
Sing peace into his breast _ _ _ [C] Or see the brown mice swap
_ _ [G] _ _ Around and [Am]
around he'll [C] be just
_ He [G] comes, a _ human _ _ _
[Bm] child, to [Em] the water _ He _ _ _ _ _ _ comes, [G] _
_ _ _ a human child, to [Em] the water
_ And the wild, _
_ _ _ _ [C] like a fairy _ _ [Bm] hand in hand _ _ [Am] _
From _ _ _ _ _ a world more [C] full of weeping
From a [Bm] world more full of [Am] weeping _ And you [C] can't well stand
That he [G] can't understand
