Intro D 

Verse 
            A    G D                Em 
What in the world   do the old bard need? 
        A   G                F#m Em D 
Ears to hear and the soul to heed 
                                 Em 
Roof from the snow and the quiet craic 
         A              D 
Bit of a blanket to his back 
        A            G       D 
Ears to hear and the soul to heed 
        A                     D 
That do be, what the old bard need 

Verse 
            A    G D                Em 
What in the world   do the old bard need? 
        A   G                    F#m Em D 
Ears to hear and the strength to heed 
                          Em 
Dab of tin for a night of work 
            A     G     A       D 
Glim of the lamp, stave off the dark 
        A            G           D 
Ears to hear and the strength to heed 
        A                     D 
That do be, what the old bard need 

Verse 
          A   G D               Em 
Soft dark wind   in the hemlock-night 
           A   G               F#m  Em D 
Tap of the rain on the shingle tight 
                              Em 
Southeast wind in the bending reed 
           A                   D 
Cup of the warm for the body's need 
        A          G       D 
Ears to hear and a tear to weep 
             A                  D 
And he'll be tucking him off to sleep 

Verse 
                   A G D                  Em 
But what would you do   for the old one's heart? 
            A   G                F#m  Em D 
A song or a tale of your own, to start 
                               Em 
The quiet word by the shifting fire 
              A                  D 
Words of your own dear heart's desire 
                     A           G           D 
For the cares of the one are the cares of us all 
                 A                D 
Your heart gives heart to another soul 

Verse 
A    G D                         Em 
Then,   when the old path climbs again 
           A      G         F#m Em D 
Threads of wonder, wish and pain 
                            Em 
He'll be weaving, the road along 
                  A             D 
And you'll be the fabric of the song 
        A          G       D 
Ears to hear and a soul to heed 
          A                     D 
These for sure, do the old bard need 
        A          G       D 
Ears to hear and a soul to heed 
          A                     D 
These for sure, do the old bard need
