No Capo
Intro: Dm, A, Dm
Dm
There was a young maiden, fair to behold,
A Dm
Dancing under starlight, in a field of gold
Dm
She heard the sound of angel wings,
She turned to look about
A Dm
And there she saw a man, the fairy tales write about
He stood beneath a tree,
All dressed in white and violet robes,
And holding out his hand,
A Dm
He planned to take the maiden home
He asked if she would marry him,
And she replied in vain...for when she said her yes
A Dm
in jest the man fell down in pain
Dm
His heartache was too much to bear,
His home was in the sky
He’d meant to take her heavenward,
A Dm
But now he realized,
That her world seemed more beautiful,
This midway land of love,
A Dm
He lost all his desire to return to lands above – Ha – Ha
Dm, A, Dm x2
Dm
Now that he saw the maiden,
He had seen from up on high
And saw her closer than he’d ever
A Dm
Seen her from the sky
His heart it gave him so much pain,
He couldn’t move from there
All he could do was look upon
A Dm
The maiden bright and fair
She laughed a laugh like many bells
Upon an autumn night
A Dm
And put a crown of daisy chains upon his head of light
“You do not need your halo anymore”
She laughed and said,
“You’re here in Faerieland,
A Dm
And we all live inside your head”
“You’re in the world of shadows
Mixed with light that plays on sound,
A Dm
And all you can imagine and desire will be found,
There’s nothing left to fear,
There’s nothing here to weigh you down,
You do not need your halo, angel,
A Dm
Now you have a crown.”
Dm, A, Dm x2
Dm
She leaned forward and she kissed the man
Upon his frightened lips,
A Dm
Immersed in what he later called “Epitome of Bliss”
He looked up in the sky
And thanked the Father from above
The Lord replied
A Dm
“It’s time you learned the deep secret of love”
He said “I showed the maiden fair,
And knew that you would fall,
The same thing happened to you
A Dm
That has happened to us all
You’re meant to find the secret key
I’ve hidden in your heart,
You are the Master of your Fate,
A Dm
From me you cannot part”
Dm, A, Dm x4
Dm
You’re meant to find the secret key
I’ve hidden in your heart,
You are the Master of your Fate,
A Dm
From me you’ll never part.
