Verse 1
E
When I was a girl,
A
I had a favorite story

Of the meadowlark who lived

Where the rivers wind

Her voice could match the

Angels' in it's glory
D
but she was blind
Bsus4
The lark was blind
Verse 2
E
The king of the rivers took
A
her to his palace

Where the walls were burnished
D
Bronze and golden braid
B
And he fed her fruit and

Nuts from an ivory chalice
D
Bsus4
and he prayed
B
E
A
"Sing for me, my meadowlark
E
A
Sing for me of the silver morning

Verse 3
E
Than one day as the lark

sang by the water

The god of the sun heard

her in his flight

And her singing moved him so
C#m
D
He came and brought her the gift of sight
A
Bsus4
He gave her sight
Verse 4
E
And she opened her eyes to
A
The shimmer and the splendor
E
Of this beautiful young god

So proud and strong

And he called to the lark in
C#m
A voice both rough and tender
D
Bm
"Come along
Bsus4
Fly
Verse 5

with me, my meadowlark

Fly with me on the silver morning

Past the sea where the dolphins bark

We will dance on the coral beaches

Just as far as your vision reaches
G#sus4
G#
Fly with me" but the

D
For the old king loved her so

She couldn't bear to wound his pride

So the sun god flew away

And when the king came
D
Bbm
down that day
G#m
He found his meadowlark had died
Bbm
B
Every time I heard that part I cried
Verse 6

And now I stand here,
A
starry- eyed and stormy

How, just when I thought my

Heart was finally numb
B
A beautiful young man
C#m
appears before me
D
A
Bsus4
Singing "Come oh, won't you come?"
B
And
Verse 7

what can I do if, finally

For the first time

The one I'm burning for returns the glow?

If love has come at last

away, meadowlark
