Intro
E A E A
[Grace]
[Chorus]
E
Round about the beacon we go
A
Taking our time
E
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
E A
F# A
And I will just follow her
F#7 Am
To the beacon of something of a home
N.C.
In the sweet willow
E A
[Cassia]
F# A
And we are forever young
F#7 Am
Our tale goes on and on
[Grace & Cassia]
E
Take a breath, take my hand
We’re on our sacred land
F#m Am
Feel the beating rhythm of the heart
Beneath our feet
E
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
E A
Oh
E A Fm*
Oh
[Adelaide]
E
I have never wandered
Slightly off the path
A
Could it be I wish to run away
And never turn my back
E
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
E
On my own
[Grace & Cassia]
E A
Ohhhhhhh,
E
I've always wanted a place
A Fm*
To call home
[Meg]
E
Round about the willow
A
I know, I’m never alone
E
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]
E
Round about the beacon we go
A
Taking our time
E
Basking at fireflies singing the songs
E
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
