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