By My Side

Dm                    C               Am
Where are you going?   Where are you going?
Dm                C          Am
Will you take me with you?
        Dm                       C   Am
For my hand is cold and needs warmth. 
                Dm
Where are you going?

C                      Dm
Far beyond where the horizon lies,
            C   
Where the horizon lies, and the land sinks into
D                C                     D
Mellow blueness, oh, please, take me with you.
C                D
Let me skip the road with you.    
       C                  D
I can dare myself, I can dare myself. 
C                 D                 C
I'll put a pebble in my shoe, and watch me walk,
       D
I can walk and walk.

Dm                       C             Am              Dm
I shall call the pebble dare. (I shall call the pebble dare)
                            C        Am
We will talk together about walking. 
               Dm
Dare shall be carried,
                      C
And when we both have had enough, 
       Dm                               C          Am
I will take him from my shoe, singing,  "Meet your new road."
          Dm                      C              Am
Then I'll take your hand, finally glad. (Finally glad)

That you are here. 

      Dm              C          Am
By my side, by my si--de, by my side
       Dm             C          Am
By my side, by my si--de, by my side
       Dm                   C          Am
By my side, that you are he--re by my side.
