The Bard's Song

Am          G
Now You all know
Em7                 Am
The bards and their songs
Am                   G
When hours have gone by
Em7            Am
I'll close my eyes
Am              G
In a world far away
Em7          Am
We may meet again
Am              G
But now hear my song
          Em7         Dm
About the dawn of the night
      C    G   Am     G        C  G  Am  G
Let's sing the bards' song

  Dm Am       Dm      Am
Tomorrow will take us away
Dm       Am
Far from home
Dm          F    G        Dm
No one will ever know our names
     F              G      Am
But the bards' songs will remain
  Dm Am       Dm       Am
Tomorrow will take it away
    Dm        Am
The fear of today
    Dm      F
It will be gone
    Am           Em
Due to our magic songs

Am               G
There's only one song
Em7         Am
Left in my mind

Am               G
Tales of a brave man
Em7         Am
Who lived far from here
Am                     G
Now the bard songs are over
Em7              Am
And it's time to leave
Am              G              Em7         Dm
No one should ask You for the name Of the one
     C    G   Am G   C  G   Am G
Who tells the story

  Dm Am       Dm      Am
Tomorrow will take us away
Dm       Am
Far from home
Dm          F    G        Dm
No one will ever know our names
     F              G      Am
But the bards' songs will remain
 Dm  Am     Dm        Am
Tomorrow all will be known
     Dm         Am
And You're not alone
   Dm        F
So don't be afraid
        G       Dm
In the dark and cold
          F             G      Am
'Cause the bards' songs will remain
     C     G     Am
They all will remain

C     G            Am
In my thoughts and in my dreams
        C      G     Am
They're always in my mind
      C        G        Am
These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men
C
And elves
     G          Am
Come close Your eyes
        C   G     Em7
You can see them, too
