The Park

	  		Dm 
Let me walk a while alone 
        Em                 Dm 
Among the sacred rocks and stones 
            
Let me look in vain belief 
         Em             Dm 
Upon the beauty of each leaf  

There is green in ev'ry blade 
The tree tops lean providing shade 
Maples spin in happy song 
All nature's strength around 

And there's a horse that feels no pain 
It's iron strength to take the strain 
Children rock it to and from 
And gayly drink its colour glow 

Dm Em    F   G Am     G  F    Em Dm   
ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah 

Above, the sky, devoid of cloud 
Thinks not to cast a thunder shroud 
Upon this place so full of joy 
A field of gold at loves employ 

So why my heavy heart you say 
When tears would stain, a sight so gay 
My brother's dream once here did soar     
Until he died at the hand of needless war
