[C]calls
for the [D]light[Dm][C]

[G]And the blue dawn
[A]And cracks [D]on [Am]the morn
[D]Of another day
[Gm]Ten thousand [A]years away
[G]And the seeds that were [A]sown
Into young [D]men [Am]have [D]grown
Fathers to
[Gm]Their youngest [A]child [G]to place
In the camp fire's [A]sight
Dead [D]as [Am]the night
That he [D]can't quite recall
[Gm]He can't q[A]uite recall

[Verse 10]
When the [A]dreams in his
head were the stone[D]s
In his bed [G]and the shout
s of the [C]sun [D]as it falls
And the [A]women wake and they
laugh as [D]they shake
Their [G]frosty sleep [C]from [D]their hair
And [A]put that same old kettle [D]on
And [G]sing [C]that same old [D]pagan [G]song
