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