[Eb]
While [Bb] traveling north west [Eb] on a [Ab] backcountry lane
I [Cm] came on the village where [Fm] first [Cm] I grew
And
[Eb] stopped to [Bb]
climb up the hill [Ab] once again
Looking down from [Cm] the tracks [Fm] to the great [Cm] slate roofs
I watched the village [Bb]
moving [Cm] as the day went slowly [Bb] by
[Eb] In the [Bb] fields we [Cm] lay [Bb] here, [Ab] my very [Cm] first [Fm] love and I
Under [Cm] timeless [Bb] [F] arcadian skies
[Cm] Under timeless [Bb] [Ab] arcadian skies
[Eb] The old [Bb] canal lines [Eb] sleeping under [Ab] the sky
The [Cm] barges are gone [Fm] to a lost [Cm]
decade
On [Eb] overgrown [Bb] banks here, lovers footsteps [Ab] went by
Long [Cm] before ever [Fm] the [Cm] roads were laid
And in our turn we [Bb]
passed here [Cm] and carved our names [Bb] on trees
[Eb] As the days [Bb] [Cm] washed by [Bb] [Ab] like [Cm] waves of an [Fm] endless sea
Under [Cm] timeless [Bb] arcadian [F] skies
Under [Cm] timeless [Bb] [Ab] arcadian skies
[Eb]
[Ebm] Time [F] runs through your [Bbm] fingers
[C] You never [Fm] hold [C] it at all till [Fm] it's gone
Some [C]
[F] fragments [Bbm] just linger [C] with you
[Fm] Like snow in the [C] spring [Fm] hanging on
I [Eb]
[Bb] left the village behind in [Ab] the night
To fade [Cm] like a sail [Fm] on the [Cm] darkness
The [Eb]
[Bb] shifts and changes [Eb] in [Ab] the [Eb] patterns [Ab] of life
Will [Cm] weather it more [Fm] than the [Cm] centuries
And in another [Bb] village in [Cm] a far off [Bb] foreign land
[Eb] The [Bb] new [Cm] day [Bb] breaks out [Ab] [Cm] opening up [Fm] its hand
[Cm] And the sun has [Bb] the moon [F] in his eyes
[Cm] As he wanders [Bb] the [Ab] timeless skies
