Chris de Burgh - The tower

^DA great Lord came walking through the ^Dmaj7forest one morning with a ^Gweapon in his ^Dhand Rich was his castle, he ^Dmaj7lacked for nothing, ^Gkilling was his ^Asus4plan ^A When a ^Bmwhite bird flew by, she ^F#mfell from the sky ^GNothing was ^Dfound, only ^Emblood on the ^Asus4ground^A She was ^Dgone

^DCursing his fortune, he ^Dmaj7turned to the forest to ^Gkill once a^Dgain Standing before him was a ^Dmaj7lovely young woman with her ^Ghand hung in ^Asus4pain ^A When he ^Bmsaw her, his eyes were ^F#mfilled with desire He ^Gsaid "I must ^Dhave her, ^Emshe must be ^Asus4mine. ^A She will be ^Dmine."

^DHe offered her silver, he ^Dmaj7offered her gold but she ^Gthrew it on the ^Dground He fell to his knees and he ^Dmaj7begged her, "Oh please come with ^Gme, what you wish will be ^Asus4found"^A She said, ^Bm"Sire, I'll go if you'll^F#m put up your bow And ^Gspare these ^Dcreatures, ^Emleave them in ^Asus4peace ^A You have no ^F#sus4need" ^F#

But her ^Emwords were ^Alost in the ^Dwind His ^Geyes were ^Dfixed on a ^Aqueen And ^Bmall he saw was a ^F#mwoman but ^Emall she ^Awas, was a ^Ddream ^GOh ^AOh ^F#Ah ^BmAh ^GDaDaDa ^DDaDaDa ^Asus4Da ^{A Bm}All he saw was a ^F#mwoman and ^Emall she ^Awas, was a ^Ddream

^DHe took her and bound her with ^Dmaj7ropes tied around her, to his castle he ^Gdid ride ^D In the wood was a bower where ^Dmaj7stood an old tower and he ^Gthrew her deep in^Asus4side ^A And the ^Bmbirds left the sky and a ^F#mterrible cry Brought ^Gthunder and ^Dlightning, ^Emrain falling ^Asus4down ^A Tears on the ^Dground

^DAll through the days on her ^Dmaj7face he would gaze for she was ^Glovely as the ^Dspring No words would she speak but "^Dmaj7Leave them in peace" and some ^Gsad lament she would ^Asus4sing ^A One ^Bmday by the door, through the ^F#mwindow he saw a ^Gsingle white ^Dfeather ^Emlying on the ^Asus4floor ^A She was there no ^Dmore

^DNow that great Lord is dying, his ^Dmaj7cold heart is crying for the ^Glove of the ^Dgirl For many an hour he has ^Dmaj7wept on the Tower, for she ^Gmeant more than the ^Asus4world ^A One ^Bmday in the sky a white ^F#mbird flew by, he ^Glifted his ^Dhands, he ^Emcried out in ^Asus4pain ^A Come back a^F#sus4gain ^F#

But his ^Emwords were ^Alost in the ^Dwind His ^Gcastle was ^Dbuilt upon ^Asand ^BmAll he has is a ^F#mmemory and ^Emall he ^Ayearns is her ^Dhand ^GOh ^AOh ^F#Ah ^BmAh ^GDaDaDa ^DDaDaDa ^Asus4Da ^{A Bm}All he has is a ^F#mmemory and ^Emall he ^Ayearns is her ^Dhand.
