Intro
D
G
You, so fleet and youthful, must have split a thousand apples
Bm G
Oh, I watched you as you steadied first your heart then your breath
D G
Venturing out, you scanned a thousand blades of grass
Bm G Em
And when you drew your bowstring, it was a swift and cordial death
G
As you stood in the wilderness
Em G
Did you feel the silence in the stillness?
D F#m A
That was me, with you in the forest
D F#m
For you knew the balances, the balances before us
G D Bm A
I was guarding Crystal, Crystal Creek
D G
Oh, a tree, it's a record, a home of memories
Bm G
And every bird springs from an old master's canvas, full in flight
D G
And the pond I go to, sparkles in a vast estuary
Bm G Em
And those men saw nothing, staring drunken through their sites
G
The one who spied me out as goods to plunder
Em G
I had to show the world that he was not a true hunter
D F#m
That was me, when he saw me naked
A D F#m
He was interrupting something sacred
G D Bm A
I was guarding Crystal, Crystal Creek
D G
And the newsmen circled, leaving trails of cigarette butts
Bm G
Machine-like up the hill to Crystal Creek
D G
“James,” she said, “who would do this thing I've seen today.
Bm G Em
I cannot hold my mic, my hands are shaking, knees are weak.”
G
“They found a man and he was wrapped in a deerskin,
Em G
Riddled through with boxes of his friends' ammunition.
Em A
Turn the camera off,” she said.
D F#m
That was me, oh, my noble animals
D F#m
You must act with reverence, with reverence, not like cannibals
G D Bm A D
I was guarding Crystal, Crystal Creek
