Am Am G Am
I lived my life in the words of a Storyman,
Am Am G Am
Watched my dreams from the years gone by,
C G Am
Heard my voice in the songs of a Storyman,
D Em D Em
Always by my side, always by my side;
Am Am G Am
I saw him first in a castle by candlelight,
Am Am G Am
Turning round with a golden key,
C G Am
I heard a train far away, and a whistle blow,
D Em D Em
Like a baby's cry, 'twas like a baby's cry;
Am Am G Am
Ravens stood on the walls of Jerusalem,
Am Am G Am
Sailors danced at the borderline,
C G Am
Light a fire on the road to the ferryman,
D Em D Em
Emotions running high, in the summertime;
--> Chorus
C G
Take me back to the places I've never been,
C G C
Take me back to another time,
C G C
Take me back to a world I have never seen,
D Em D Em
Only in my mind, only in my mind;
Am Am G Am
Late last night I met up with a lady-love,
Am Am G Am
Dressed in red, didn't say goodbye,
C G Am
Carry me to the last time I showed her what
D Em D Em
Tender hands can do, and I'll be missing you;
Chorus -->
C
Follow the light that's shining on to where we will be going,
G
Up to Heaven, Paradise, or to the heart divine;
C
It's in the echoes of a child, waiting for the journey,
G
The spirit of one world;
Oh
Chorus -->
Am Am G Am
I lived my life in the words of a Storyman......
