Godness daughter [F#] stopped me on [C#] my way [F#] on the day [G#] I was [C#] to wed.
[D#m] It is you who [F#] I wish to share [D#m] my body [G#] with, [C#] she [F#] said.
[C#] [F#]
[C#] We'll find a dry place under the sky [F#] with a [G#] flower for [C#] a bed.
[C#]
[C#] And [D#m] for my joy [F#] I will give you a boy with [D#m] a [G#] moon and [D#] stars [G#] [D#m] [G#]
[C#] on his head.

[D#m] Her hands were like the [F#] white sands [D#m] and her eyes [G#] had diamonds [C#] on.
We left the road and headed up to the [F#] top of [G#] the [C#]
whisperwood.
[D#m] And we walked till [F#] we came to where [D#m] the holy [G#]
[C#] magnolia stood.
And there we laid [F#] cool in [C#] the [F#] shade singing songs [G#] and [Fm] making [A#m] love.
[D#m] [G#]
[C#] Making love [D#m] with the naked earth [F#] beneath us and [D#m] the [G#] universe
[C#] above.

[D#] Cause she had [F#] given me something that [D#] my heart [G#] could not [C#] forget.
