Oh I have lived for ages, I'm a thousand turns of tides,
C F C
I'm a thousand wakes of springtime, and a thousand infant cries -
G C
Oh, a thousand infant cries...
C F C
I've got sixteen-hundred tigers now all tied to silver strings,
C F C
When they pull out in the pasture - Oh, the mighty heart will sing!
G C
Oh, the mighty heart will sing!
G Am
But I'll always be blamed for the sun goin' down with a song.
F C G C
But I'm the light in the middle of every man's fall.
C C C C C C C C
C F C
I bend my arrows now in circles and I shoot around the hill,
C F C
If I don't get you in the mornin' by the evenin' I sure will,
G C
By the evenin'... Oh, I sure will!
C F C
Cause I'm the fire on the mountain you have lit up in your dreams,
C F C
But also water on the fountain, you can set my self on me,
G C
You can set my self on me.
G Am
But I'll always be blamed for the sun goin' down with a song.

And no I never meant to say these words, but yes you ought to know,
C F C
That the dark ain't what I've always been, it will not ever go,
G C
No, it will not ever go.
C F C
For so I've lived a thousand years, a thousand turns of tides,
C F C
Just a thousand leaves in Autumn and a thousand ways to try
G Am Am Am Am F F G G
Oh a thousand, it's just a thousand ways to try

Oh I am live for ages i'm a thousand turns of tides
I'm a thousand weeks of springtime and a thousand infant cries
Oh a thousand, Infant cries
I've got 16 hundred tigers now tied to silver string
When they pull out in the pasture oh the mighty heart will sing
Oh the mighty, heart will sing
But i'll always be blamed for the sun going down with us all
But i'm the light in the middle of everymans fall
I bend my arrows now in cirles and I shoot around the hill
If I don't get you in the morning by the evening I sure will
By the evening, I sure will
Cos i'm the fire on the mountain you have lit up in your dreams
But also water on the fountain you can send myself for me
You can send myself for me
Cos i'll always be blamed for the sun going down with us all
But i'm the light in the middle of everymans fall
And no I never meant to say these word but yes you ought to know
That the dark in what i've always been will not ever go
No it will not, ever go
And for so I lived a thousand years a thousand turns of tide
Just a thousand leaves in autumn and a thousand ways to try
Oh a thousand, its just a thousand, ways to try

tuning: CFCFCF
capo: he plays the album version with a capo on the 10th fret, but I recommend putting
it on the 7th fret, he does this too when playing live sometimes.
