The Red Leaf Forest

	  		

Intro: G D G 

 G           D        G 
Deep in the red leaf forest 
   C                G 
A hunter with his crossbow 
 C             G 
Came upon the secret pool 
       A              D  
Where Diana took her hair down 

        G       D       G 
And he saw her perfect body 
  C                   G 
Shining through the thickets 
 C                G 
Such a blinding beauty 
     D              G 
He could not say a word 

      C                               
And though he stood there speechless 
     G                  C 
She felt his eyes upon her 
         G                C 
And she turned him to a white stag 
     A             D       
And set his dogs upon him 

         G            D         G 
And the dogs didn't know their master 
      C                 G 
They tore that stag to pieces 
      C                    G 
Then called and called to him 
     D              G 
Who couldn't say a word 

G D G C G C G A D C Bm Am  

    G      D          G 
But as he lay there bleeding 
     C               G 
He smiled up at the sunset 
C                 G 
She who took his life from him 
A                    D  D7 
Was worth twice the cost 

  G        D         G 
Swirls of deep red leaves 
     C               G 
Fell on his perfect body 
         C                G 
And he smiled up at the trees 
     D               G 
But could not say a word 

  C                       
When the fig tree blooms 
          G                C 
When the vine is red with berries 
  G                 C 
Swallows soon will gather 
          A             D   C Bm Am 
To steal every drop of sugar 

         G     C        G 
And the world turns in circles 
          C                 G 
In such wheels of burning beauty 
      C                 G 
Each morning kills the night 
     D            G 
Without a single word 
      C                 G 
Each morning kills the night 
     D            C   Bm Am G 
Without a single word
