The Fallow Way by Judy Collins
The Fallow Way
Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:Eb
Capo:no capo
Eb Ab
I'll learn to love the fallow way
Eb Bb
When winter draws the valley down
Ab Eb/G
And stills the rivers in their storm
Ab Bb
And freezes all the little brooks
Eb Ab
Time when our steps slow to the song
Eb Bb
Of falling flakes and crackling flames
Ab Eb/G
When silver stars are high and still
Ab Bb
Deep in the velvet of the sky
Ab Eb
The crystal time the silence times
Ab Eb
I'll learn to love their quietness
Ab Eb/G
While deep beneath the glistening snow
Ab Bb
The black earth dreams of violets
Ab Eb
I'll learn to love the fallow time
--
Eb Ab
I'll learn to love the fallow way
Eb Bb
When all my colors fade to white
Ab Eb/G
And flying birds fold back their wings
Ab Bb
Upon my anxious wonderings
Eb Ab
The sun has slanted all her rays
Eb Bb
Across the vast and harvest plains
Ab Eb/G
My memories mingle in the dawn
Ab Bb
I dream a joyful vagabonds
Ab Eb
The crystal time the silence times
Ab Eb
I'll learn to love their quietness
Ab Eb/G
While deep beneath the glistening snow
Ab Bb
The black earth dreams of violets
Ab Eb
I'll learn to love the fallow time

Bbm Eb
No drummer comes across the plains
Bbm Eb
To tell of triumph or of pain
Bbm Eb
No word far off battle's cry
Bbm Eb
To draw me out or draw me nigh
--
Eb Ab
I'll learn to love the fallow way
Eb Bb
And gather in the patient fruits
Ab Eb/G
And after autumn's blaze and burn
Ab Bb
I'll know the feel of still, deep roots
Eb Ab
That nothing seem to know or need
Eb Bb
That crack the ice in frozen ponds
Ab Eb/G
And slumbering in winter's folds
Ab Bb
Have dreams of green and blue and gold
Eb Ab
I'll learn to love the fallow way
Eb Bb
And listening for blossoming
Ab Eb
Of my own heart once more in spring
Ab Eb
As sure as time, as sure as snow
Ab Eb
As sure as moonlight, wind and stars
Ab Eb/G
The fallow time will fall away
Ab Bb
The sun will bring an April day
Ab Eb
And I will yield to Summer's way
