capo 3
Am
dont give me love , dont give me faith
F C G Am
wisdom nor pride , give innocence instead
Am
dont give me love , ive had my share
F C F Am
beauty nor rest , give me truth instead
Am G
a crow flew to me , kept its distance
F
such a proud creation
Am G
i saw its soul , envied its pride
C G Am
but needed nothing it had
Am G
an owl came to me , old and wise
F
pierced right through my youth
Am G
i learned its ways , envied its sense
C G Am
but needed nothing it had
( chorus )
Am G
a dove came to me , had no fear
F
it rested on my arm
Am G
i touched its calm , envied its love
C G Am
but needed nothing it had
Am
a swan of white , she came to me
G
the lake mirrored her beauty sweet
F
i kissed her neck , adored her grace
C G Am
but needed nothing she could give
Am
got to grieve her , got to wreck it
G
got to grieve her , got to wreck it
F
got to grieve her , got to wreck it
C , G , Am
( chorus )
