[Verse]
F# C# D#m D#m
The River of Doubt gave birth to a, beautiful stone
F# C# D#m
And in my hand I held it, and I knew I was on my own,
D#m
So I picked it up,
F# C# D#m
And held it to the sky...
F# C# D#m
And in my reflection, I knew I was all alone,
D#m F# C#
Yeah, Yeah...then I saw this girl with the most
D#m
beautiful hair, she had it
F# C# D#m
Wrapped around her, for clothes she did not wear.
F# C# D#m
I asked her for a lock, and she complied, after leaving
F# C# D#m
Gorgeous footsteps in the sand, as if she didn't care.
[Chorus]
F# C#
Well... She was the prettiest girl I ever saw and
D#m B
stone lay still without a flaw, and the feelings I
F# C#
had to fight the law as I came to, and I went to
F# C#
And I took a look, a look down the road, to see a
D#m B
badger, and a one eyed toad. They didn't say a word,
F# C#
They just looked at me with that,
F# C# D#m B F# C# C#
Wise old look of the old... Yeah... Wise old look of the
F# C# D#m B F# C#
old... Yeah...
[Verse]
F# C# D#m
And then I went down to town
F# C# D#m
To my favorite, merry-go-Round, to the place
F# C# D#m
where magic horses fly
F# C# D#m
And you seldom see a frown
[Bridge]
F# C#
But then I stole the ring, from the flying horses,
D#m
and I can't begin to explain how. (Move quickly into the next line)
F# C#
I stole the ring from the flying horses,
D#m B B B
And its all rusty now,
F# C#
I stole the ring from the flying horses,
D#m
And I can't begin to explain now
F# C#
I stole the ring from the flying horses,
D#m B B B
And its all rusty now,
C#
It's all rusty...
[Verse]
F# C# D#m
Ya see, cause that stone fell right through my pocket
F# C# D#m
And that locK of hair blew away with the wind
F# C# D#m
If you chance to see upon either, Well...
F# C# D#m
You know where they've been.
[Chorus]
F# C# D#m
But don't pick them up or try to find me
D#m
We're much happier to be on our own
F# C# D#m
Beauty like that knows, no
F# C#
And if you take a look, a look down the road
D#m
You'll see a badger and a one eyed toad
B F# C#
They won't say a word they'll just look at you with that, wise old look of
F# C# D#m B F# C#
the old... Yeah…
F# C# D#m B F# C#
Wise old look of the old... Yeah....
F# C# D#m B F# C#
F# C# D#m B F# C#
Play the bridge and fade away.
