GPale_ was_ the wounded Cknight_ that Gbore_ the rowan_ Em7shield_
GLoud_ and_ cruel_ were the raD9_-ven's_ Emcries_ that C (520000)feasted on_ the fDield_
Saying_ Gbeck_ water cold and_ Cclear_ will Gnever_ clean_ your Em7wound_
There's Gnone_ but the witch of_ the WeD9st-_morEmland_ can C (520000)make_ thee hale and soDund_
So Gturn_ turn your stallion's_ Chead_ til his_ Gred_ mane_ flies in the Em7wind_
And the Gri_-der of_ the moD9on_ goes_ Emby_ and the C (520000)bright star falls beDhind_
And Gcle-e-ar_ was_ the paley_ Cmoon_ when his Gshadow_ passed him Em7by_
Be_-Glow_ the_ hills_ were the brD9igh-_test Emstars_ when he C (520000)heard_ the owlet cDry_
Saying_ "GWhy_ do you ride_ this_ Cway__ and Gwherefore came_ you Em7here?"__
"I Gseek_ the Witch of_ the WeD9st-morEmland who C (520000)dwells_ by the winding Dmere"_
And it's Gwe-a-ry by_ the Ulls_-Cwa__-ter_ and the Gmisty brake fern_ Em7way__
Til_ Gthrough_ the cleft_ of the KiD9rkstone EmPass the C (520000)winding wa-a_-ter lDay___

One Ghalf__ the form_ of a maD9i-_den_ Emfair_ with a C (520000)jet_ black_ mare's bo-o-Ddy_

GStoop and strike_ my goD9od grey_ Emhawk_ and C (520000)bring me the mai-ai_-den Dfair"__
