Follow The Heron

G C The back of the winter is broken Am D7 G And light lingers long by the door G C And the seeds of the summer have spoken Am D7 G In gowans that bloom on the shore D Em C By night and day we'll sport and we'll play G Am D7 And delight as the dawn dances over the bay Em D/F# G C Sleep blows the breath of the morning away Am D7 G And we follow the heron home G C In darkness we cradled our sorrow Am D7 G And stoked all our fires with fear G C Now these bones that lie empty and hollow Am D7 G Are ready for gladness to cheer D Em C By night and day we'll sport and we'll play G Am D7 And delight as the dawn dances over the bay Em D/F# G C Sleep blows the breath of the morning away Am D7 G And we follow the heron home G C So long may you sing of the salmon Am D7 G And the snow-scented sounds of your home G C While the north wind delivers its sermon Am D7 G Of ice and salt water and stone 2x D Em C By night and day we'll sport and we'll play G Am D7 And delight as the dawn dances over the bay Em D/F# G C Sleep blows the breath of the morning away Am D7 G And we follow the heron home 4x G C G G Am G Badidaaadaaaaaa badidadaaandaaaaa
