[Verse 1]
C Bm D D
Still waters at night in the darkest of dark
C Bm D D
but you rise as white as the birch tree's bark.
Em Em/D C
Or a pale wolf in winter, you look down and shiver
Am D G C G G
at still waters at night.
[Verse 2]
C Bm D D
Your eyes are as black as the blackness you're fearing,
C Bm D D
and yonder a bridge and a voice within hearing.
Em Em/D C
Come walk on me softly, look down and you'll see
Am D G C G G
still waters at night.
[Bridge]
F C C G G
You've reason to fear there is no protection,
F C C G G
but a garland of emeralds and a moonlit reflection
D D Em
of a boat in the distance will the devil take his chance
Am D G C G G
at still waters at night.
[Verse 3]
C Bm D D
So dance me a small dance and the night cannot hurt you,
C Bm D D
nor the waters be silent, nor the emeralds desert you.
Em Em/D C C
For the boat's full of bright scarves and wild hats among them,
Em Em C C
songs of the vagabond, it's to you he has sung them
Am Am D
and shattered the silence of still waters at [Outro] night.
[Outro]
