Where dips the rocky highland Of Sleuth Wood in the lake
      Em (022000@1)                       Am (x02210@1)        G/B (143121@7)   C (x32010@1)         
There lies a leafy island where flapping herons wake
     G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1)             Am (x02210@1)           Em (022000@1) 
The drowsy water-rats There we've hid our faery vats
Em (022000@1)      D (xx0232@1)          Em (022000@1)    D (xx0232@1)     C (x32010@1) D (xx0232@1)Full of berries And of reddest stolen cherries

[Chorus:]
                 G (320003@1)           D (xx0232@1)         Am (x02210@1)           Em (022000@1)         Come away, O human child to the waters and the wild
                  Em (022000@1)           D (xx0232@1)           G (320003@1)      D/F# (200232@1)        Em (022000@1)   
          With a faery, hand in hand for the world's more full of weeping
          D (xx0232@1)     Am (x02210@1)  G/B (143121@7)     C (x32010@1)    
          Than you/he can understand.

Em (022000@1)                         Am (x02210@1)       G/B (143121@7)      C (x32010@1)  
Where the wave of moonlight glosses the dim grey sands with light
   Em (022000@1)                          Am (x02210@1) G/B (143121@7)  C (x32010@1) 
By far off furthest rosses we foot it all the night
G (320003@1)            D (xx0232@1)            Am (x02210@1)                 Em (022000@1)Weaving olden dances mingling hands and mingling glances
         Em (022000@1)              Am (x02210@1)Am (x02210@1)   G/B (143121@7)  Em (022000@1)             
Till the moon has taken flight To and fro we leap
    Em (022000@1)              D (xx0232@1)                G (320003@1)      D/F# (200232@1)    Em (022000@1)And chase the frothy bubbles whilst the world is full of troubles
D (xx0232@1)       Am (x02210@1)    G/B (143121@7)   C (x32010@1)   
And is anxious in its sleep.

[Chorus] - [Guitar Solo]

Where the wandering water gushes from the hills above Glen-Car
              
In pools among the rushes that scarce could bathe a star
              
We seek for slumbering trout and whispering in their ears
              
Give them unquiet dreams leaning softly out
             
From ferns that drop their tears over the young streams

[Chorus]

Em (022000@1)                         Am (x02210@1)G/B (143121@7) C (x32010@1)  
Away with us he's going the solemn-eyed
      Em (022000@1)                           Am (x02210@1)          G/B (143121@7)     C (x32010@1)He'll hear no more the lowing of the calves on the warm hillside
       G (320003@1)           D (xx0232@1)       Am (x02210@1)          Em (022000@1)Or the kettle on the hob sing peace into his breast
Em (022000@1)                  Am (x02210@1)             Am (x02210@1)   G/B (143121@7)    Em (022000@1) 
Or see the brown mice bob round and round the oatmeal chest.
        
[Chorus]

G (320003@1)               D (xx0232@1)        Am (x02210@1)            EmFor (022000@1)he comes, the human child to the waters and the wild
        Em (022000@1)          D (xx0232@1)                 G (320003@1) D/F# (200232@1)    Em (022000@1)   
With a faery hand in hand for the world's more full of weeping
D (xx0232@1)  Am (x02210@1)     G/B (143121@7)  C (x32010@1)   
Than you can understand.
