Dream Of The Archer by Heart
Dream Of The Archer
Tuning: standard
Figures 1 & 2 are played in tandem, if only one mandolin, then I would play
Fig. 2 but either one sounds good individually. Just listen to the song and
get the feel for it.
The song goes in this order:
Fig. 1/2, 1/2, 3, 1/2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5
Verses: Mandolin 1 (fig. 1)
Am Em Em B5 B5 B5 Am

Wayfaring warrior soul - still wild
The archer stands
Arrow measured to the goal - sing of
Strong and living man
In his mind there is a vision wandring
Through the forest town
Telling of riches only given if through
The woods the way is found
Crying ah! beautiful dancers ...wake up
From your sleep!
Ahhh gentle romancers...drink of love
So sweet!
Treasure glowing in their eyes - forest
Deepens dark their dream
Keep to the pathway he advise the woods
Are more than they might seem
Heed you now the apparition bending never
Ending sounds
Call you into her mystery - are your eyes
Not sparkling now?
Sighing ahh! take you no warning -
Make no foolish fight
Ahh, think not of morning - lie here
Through the night!
Beauty take us! they call in my arms!
They hear her say
Silken web falls - mist illusion rips away
Helpless! helpless! now they scream
Helpless on the path he stands
And awakens from his dream singing string
Beneath his hand
Gentle archer ages old - release the aim
Free the goal
Roll your arrow to my soul - release the aim
Free the go
