[A]
I went out to the [E] hazel wood
Because [D]
a fire was in [A] my head
I cut and peeled a [E] hazel wand
[D] And hooked a berry to [A] a thread
And when [E] white [A] logs were [D] on their way
[E] I mocked like stars with [A] liquor and ale
[Em] I dropped a [E] berry
[A] And [D] [E]
got a little [A] silver trout
When I had laid [E] it on the floor
[D] I went to blow the [A] fire away
But something rustled [E] on the floor
And [D] something called me [A] by my name
It had [E] become [A] a [F#m] glimmering girl
[D] [E]
With apple blossoms [A] and hair
Who called [Em] me by [E] [A] my [D] name
And [E] vanished into the [A] lightning air
[E]
[D]
[F#m] [A]
[E] [D]
[A] Though I am old with [E]
wandering
Through [D] hollow lands and hilly [A] land
I will find out [E] where she has gone
[D] I kiss her lips and take [A] her hand
And walk [E]
along [A] warm [D] double grass
[E]
And pluck till time and [A] times are done
[D] The [E] silver apples [A]
[D] of the moon
[E] And the golden apples [A] of the sun
