5 6 -5 5 -5 6 7 7
My life has been a tap-es-try
-7 -6 6 5 -5 6
Of rich and royal hue
6 6 -5 5 -5 6 7
An ev-er last-ing vision
7 -8 -8 -8 -8 7 6
Of the ev-er chang-ing view
5 -4 6 6 6 -6 6
A wond'rous wo-ven mag-ic
6 -6 7 7 7 7 -8
In bits of blue and gold~~~~
-8 -8 -8 7 -7 7 6 6
A tap-es-try to feel and see
6 -6 6 6 -5 -5 6
Im-pos-si-ble to hold~~~~
6 -5 5 -5 -5 7 -7
Once a - mid the soft sil-ver
-6 6 5 -5 -5
Sadness in the sky
6 6 -5 5 -5 -5 7
There came a man of fortune
-8 -8 -8 -8 7 6
A drif-ter pas-sing by
5 -4 6 6 6 -6 6 6
He wore a torn and tattered cloth
6 -6 7 7 7 7
Around his leathered hide
7 -8 -8 -8 7 -7 7 6
And a coat of man-y colors
5 6 6 6 6 -5 6
Yellow, green on either side
6 -7 -6 6 -6 -7 8 8
He moved with some un-cer-tain-ty
-8 7 -7 6 -6 -7
As if he didn't know
-7 -6 6 -6 -7 7
Just what he was there for
-8 7 -7 6 -6 -7
Or where he ought to go
-7 -6 -7 7 -8 -8
Once he reached for something
-8 7 7 -7 6 -6 -6
Golden hanging from a tree
-7 -7 -7 6 6 6 -6
And his hand came down emp - ty
6 -5 5 -5 6 7 7
Soon within my tap-es-try
-7 -6 6 5 -5 -5
A-long the rut-ted road
6 6 -5 -5 -5 -5 6 7
He sat down on a riv-er rock
7 7 -8 -8 7 7
And turned in-to a toad
6 -4 6 6 6 -6 6
It seemed that he had fall-en
6 6 6 7 7 7 7
In-to some-one's wick-ed spell
7 -8 -8 -8 7 -7 7 6
And I wept to see him suf-fer
6 6 6 -6 6 -5 6
Though I didn't know him well
6 -5 5 -5 6 7
As I watched in sor-row
-7 -6 6 5 -5 -5 6
There sud-den-ly appeared~~~~
6 6 -5 5 -5 6 7
A figure grey and ghostly
-8 -8 -8 -8 7 -5 6
Beneath a flow-ing beard~~~~
5 -5 6 6 6 6 -6 6
In times of deep-est dark~~~ness
6 6 7 7 7 -8
I've seen him dressed in black
7 -8 -8 -8 7 -7 7 6 6
Now my tap-es-try's un-rav-el-ing
6 6 6 6 -5 6
He's come to take me back
6 6 6 6 -5 6
He's come to take me back....
