[Grace]
[Chorus]
D
Round about the beacon we go
G
Taking our time
D
Basking at fireflies singing the songs
That we already know

It’s part of a story been told
Fm*
Round the fire of the sweet willow
D G
E G
And I will just follow her
E7 Gm
To the beacon of something of a home
N.C.
In the sweet willow

[Cassia]
E G
And we are forever young
E7 Gm
Our tale goes on and on
[Grace & Cassia]
D
Take a breath, take my hand
We’re on our sacred land
Em Gm
Feel the beating rhythm of the heart
Beneath our feet

Stories can’t be captured and colonized
They nevеr die
G Fm*
So feel the spirit whisper through thе trees
Like it’s just for me

Oh

Oh
[Adelaide]
D
I have never wandered
Slightly off the path
G
Could it be I wish to run away
And never turn my back
D
And what may I find
Could it be that I am not alone
G
[Adelaide & Beatrice]
Fm*
In this willow tree I call home

Will I look back on my life

Regretting the years on my own
[Addie, Grace, Cassia, Meg]

On my own

On my own

On my own

On my own

I've always wanted a place

To call home
[Meg]
D
Round about the willow
G
I know, I’m never alone
D
Friends of the forest are friends of my own
G
Sit by the stream tossing pebbles and
Fm*
Hoping that time will slow down
N.C.
By the sweet willow
[Chorus]

Round about the beacon we go
G
Taking our time

Basking at fireflies singing the songs

That we already know

It’s part of a story been told round the fire
G Fm*
It’s part of a story been told round the fire
C*
Of the sweet willow
