[Grace]
[Chorus]
F
Round about the beacon we go
A#
Taking our time
F
Basking at fireflies singing the songs
That we already know
A#
It’s part of a story been told
Fm*
Round the fire of the sweet willow
F A#
G A#
And I will just follow her
G7 A#m
To the beacon of something of a home
N.C.
In the sweet willow
F A#
[Cassia]
G A#
And we are forever young
G7 A#m
Our tale goes on and on
[Grace & Cassia]
F
Take a breath, take my hand
We’re on our sacred land
Gm A#m
Feel the beating rhythm of the heart
Beneath our feet
F
Stories can’t be captured and colonized
They nevеr die
A# Fm*
So feel the spirit whisper through thе trees
Like it’s just for me
F A#
Oh
F A# Fm*
Oh
[Adelaide]
F
I have never wandered
Slightly off the path
A#
Could it be I wish to run away
And never turn my back
F
And what may I find
Could it be that I am not alone
A#
[Adelaide & Beatrice]
Fm*
In this willow tree I call home
[Beatrice]
A#
Will I look back on my life
A#
Regretting the years on my own
[Addie, Grace, Cassia, Meg]
A#
On my own
A#
On my own
Fm*
On my own
F
On my own
[Grace & Cassia]

Ohhhhhhh,
F
I've always wanted a place
A# Fm*
To call home
[Meg]
F
Round about the willow
A#
I know, I’m never alone
F
Friends of the forest are friends of my own
A#
Sit by the stream tossing pebbles and
Fm*
Hoping that time will slow down
N.C.
By the sweet willow
[Chorus]
F
Round about the beacon we go
A#
Taking our time
F
Basking at fireflies singing the songs
F
That we already know
A#
It’s part of a story been told round the fire
A# Fm*
It’s part of a story been told round the fire
C*
Of the sweet willow
