Ancient RhymesJohn DenverChords

G Two days be F fore the C moon was D round

G You felt the Em urge of C sun's light D beams

 The G muffled F world of C dolphin D sound

 Slipped C down and G back D into D7 your G dreams

[G 8th fret] - [G 7th fret] - [G 5th fret]

 For G nine full F months that C passed be D fore

 You G learned of Em all life's C ancient D rhymes

 Then G mother F sensed

  A C farther D shore

 And C brought you G forth D into D7 these G times

[G 8th fret] - [G 7th fret] - [G 5th fret]

 So Am taste the air of D your new world

 And C gently [C/b] guide us Am to your G mind

 It Am knows the winds and D sails un G furled

 And C holds to G heart D the D7 dolphin G kind

[G 8th fret] - [G 7th fret] - [G 5th fret]

G Welcome F precious C earthmade D child

 We G met you Em first in your C father's D songs

 And G mother's F smile and C waters D wild

 It's C in this G place D you D7 now be G long

 I G know you F know of C all these D things

 And G feel the Em faith of a C dolphin's D sigh

 For G you were F born on C silver D wings

 To C taste the G high blown D D7 crystal G sky

[G 8th fret] - [G 7th fret] - [G 5th fret]

 So Am sing one day to D all of us

 The C songs you [C/b] learned in Am dolphin G lair

 Giving Am hope to life as D all we G must

 And C teach us G how D their D7 grace to G share

[G 8th fret] - [G 7th fret] - [G 5th fret]
