We're gonna
doing requests.
I tell you what, we're gonna do
we're gonna do
something that's a personal favorite from [E]
from way back [A] and my [D] old band at
the time, which you've never heard of, struggled mightily to play this one [N] but
it's one of the most beautiful and if you're into Greek mythology and romance
this one might be a film for the ear for you.

Where are you, [G] my father?
[A]
Give wisdom to [D] your son.

[Em] As he rushed [Bm] to quench this [Em] thirst, a [F#] fountain spring [B] appeared before him.
And as [Em] his heated breath [Bm] rushed through the cool mist, [Em] a quick [B] voice called,
Son of God, drink from [Em] our [Am] spring.
[D] [Em] The water [Am] tasted strangely [Em] sweet.
Behind him the [Am] voice called again.
[Em] He turned his head [Bm] and a glow from his [Em] talon.
As he gazed to rise, the [F#] filth of darkness of the [Em] lake.
[D] We have [G] evolved.
