You (G) say that you have (Em) heard the tales cnd (C) rightly so you (D) may But (Em) I have one that (C) I would love To (D) sing for you (G) today I traveled over mountainpass cnd through the wind and rain I stopped in Martha Burry's Inn cnd thought it'd be my last cnd sometimes when I tread the peak I'd hear a quiet sound That (Em) settled in my (D) wayward ear cnd (C) followed me (G)around. (Em) I am a bard, (C) a wanderlust cnd (G)I am made to (D) sing (Em)Lightfoot and (C) lark hearted (D)my fingers love the (G)strings I left the road to follow fast c whisper, a suggestion Through the mountainside I came To ease my song obsession I heard it in my blood and bones c thunder in the air Over jagged rock and stones Into a dragon's laire. His scales where sterling silver, Tooth and claw a striking white. His voice was deep and dulcet as It echo'd in the heights “Womanling, you've left your fire What did you think to find, For don't you know, I hunger and We feast upon your kind.” I am a bard, a wanderlust cnd I am made to sing Lightfoot and lark hearted My fingers love the strings I answered in an honest truth, It was your voice that called From through the mountainside I came I have been clear enthralled cnd if I die to hear you sing My life is better lost For just one song before I go It would be worth the cost. The Dragon laughed and settled down He sang to me a tune I couldn't help but hum along It ended far too soon “Would that the mountain had a heart, Would that the wind had breath If stars could hum, and ocean drum Such music, light and death.” I am a bard, a wanderlust cnd I am made to sing Lightfoot and lark hearted My fingers love the strings We sang under that pale moonlight cnd I bargained for my life To die or stay forever and Become a dragon's wife. I settled in the mountainside cn aria at dawn The harmony at brightest day ct dusk an evensong In time I told him who I'd been, He shared with me his name But I am a creature of the air My voice grew soft and strained With every day I lived I lost c little off my soul cnd so my husband made a choice: The Dragon let me go. I am a bard, a wanderlust cnd I am made to sing Light footed and lark hearted My fingers love the strings He gave to me a silver gem Bound fast by a silver chain He said to keep it by my heart cnd there is still remains The light is on the mountainside The rumble in the clay My husband sleeps under the sun Where a sleeping dragon lay I hoped that you enjoyed my song For I'll be leaving soon Im going home to my own love To sing a happy tune. I am a bard, a wanderlust cnd I am made to sing Light footed and lark hearted My fingers love the strings x2 (final chorus notes) Em D Em D G Em D G
