Carpet of the Sun / Michael Dunford - Betty Thatcher
----------------------------------------------------
Performed by Renaissance on Ashes are Burning (1973)
Note that the seperation between bars (noted by "/", don't misunderstand me,
and play B / E as B chord on E bass...) is not very accurate. On the switches
between the B and the E there are 3/4 bar of B and then 5/4 of E.
Have fun - It's a great song!
intro B / E / B / E
B / E / B / E
B / E / B / E
1st verse:
B E
Come along with me
B E
Down into the world of seeing
B E
Come and you'll be free
B E
Take the time to find the feeling
D A
See everything on it's own
Bm G
And you'll find you know the way
D A
And you'll know the things you're shown
Bm G B / E / B / E
Owe everything to the day
Chorus:
B E
See the carpet of the sun
B E
The green grass soft and sweet
B E
Sands upon the shores of time
B E
Of ocean mountain deep
G E B
Part of the world that you live in
G E B / E / B / E
You are the part that you're giving
2nd Verse: (Same chords)
Come into the day
Feel the sunshine warmth around you
Sounds from far away
Music of the love that found you
The seed that you plant today
Tomorrow will be a tree
And living goes on this way
It's all part of you and me
Chorus: (Repeat the same chords, and then:)
A / D / E / E / B / B
D (long - pause)
Chorus: (Repeat the same chords, and then:)

See the carpet of the sun
B E B / E

B E B / E

B E G / G / E / E / B (end)

On the lyric sheet that comes with the record, there is also this verse, which
is not sung, but you may try it as well:
Come along and try
Looking into ways of giving
Maybe we will fly
Find a dream that we will live in
We'll look into the eyes of time
Past ages have turned to dust
And born somewhere on the line
The loving that grows with us
