[Verse 1]
[Am]Silk of blue woven by [Em]the moon[C]
Red [Dm]spun by [F]the sun
[Dm]Of the sun's g[G]old

[Verse 2]
[Am]Silver in wrists and in her [C]rings
Hair [Dm]braided in [F]red
Her [Dm]shoes [G]featherlight

As [Am]reeds and straws on the [C]shore
As [Dm]bark and [F]foliage
[Dm]As clamshells and sa[G]nd

[C]My [G]maiden's [Am]fles[G]h

[F]Oh [G]god [Am]of sleep
[Dm]Tell [F]in my [Am]dream
[F]Where [G]has my [C]maiden [Am]gone

[F]Rise [G]above [Am]the waves
From [F]the water[Am]s' grave
[F]From [G]the side [C]of
[Am]spottled stones[F]
[Dm]Become [G]alive again

These [Am]shores are for [G]memory[Am][C]
These wa[Dm]ters not for bait[F]ing
No [Dm]shallows for the [G]thirsty

No [Am]sun beheld above [C]these shores
No re[Dm]flection of [F]the moon
[Dm]On these waters he[G]re

[Verse 8]
[C]My [G]maiden's [Am]hair[G]
Now [F]fish in the lake [Dm]deeps
Her [G]blood now water blue

[C]My [G]maid[Dm]en's [Am]hair[G]
Grass [F]on [Dm]the waters' edge
Now [G]willows [Am]on a shore

[Dm]Tell [F]in my [Am]dream
[F]Where [G]has my [C]maiden [Am]gone
[F]Where [Dm]lies my mer[G]maid now
[F]Rise [G]above [Am]the waves
[Dm]From [F]the [Am]waters' grave
[F]From the [G]side [C]of [Am]spottled stones[F]
[Dm]Become [G]alive again

[Am]No sun beheld above these shores
[C]No refle[Dm]ction of the[F] moon
[Dm]On these w[G]aters here
