C             Am 
The mistress of the dawn  
           G 
strides along 
         F       C 
with her solitary pawn 
            Am  
who lingers on  
         G 
then is gone 
         F  
with no word 
           C  
and no one heard  
         Am 
where he went  
         G 
to this day 
F                    C Am  G   F  
maybe he would sail away 
        C            Am 
the children of the sun  
         G 
having fun  
          F              C 
didnt realize they were done  
             Am 
because the pawn  
            G           F 
chanced to wander thru the camp  
            C 
just like a tramp 
            Am  
he left his stamp there 
           G  
to this day 
F                    C Am  G   F  
maybe he would sail away 

Bb               F 
gone are silent summer rains  
C 
wind is rolling off the plains  
Bb           F 
bringing ice upon the breeze  
G* 
making flowing water freeze 
C                   Am 
the minstrel of the land  
         G 
made a stand 
      F               C  
in a castle made of sand 
         
                    Am  
watched it fall 
         G  
in the frost 
          F         Em  
and the message was lost  
              F 
with one last word 
      C  
to deliver 
      Am           Em  
under ice upon the river 
         F             G 
it lies frozen to this day 
                      F 
maybe he would sail away 
      G 
sail away 
                F  
frozen to this day 
                      C   Am G F  
maybe he would sail away
