Fairport Convention - The Heart Of The Song

      [Chorus]
         G       C     G
Oh, come all you weary travellers
       Em                 C   G
Let us take time from our journey
      G/A G/B   C
A few mo--ments long
            G       D    G
Through the way all tribulation
       Em                C G
In the cooling breath of silence
       G/B      G/A C
At the heart of a   song
             D   G
The heart of the song

[Verse]
      Em              D   G           C
As we journey through mountains in pursuit of our dreams
       Am       G           C
How we hurry to capture the tide
         Em          D  G       C
Catching glimpses of valleys of tumbling streams
G           Am           G            C
Where we'll stop someday when we have time

[Chorus]
D        G       C     G
Oh, come all you weary travellers
       Em                 C   G
Let us take time from our journey
      G/A G/B   C
A few mo--ments long
      G          D       G
If we lose sight of each other
       Em            C       G
I will meet you in a silence
             G/A G/B C
At the heart of  a   song
          D      G
The heart of the song

G   D G   Em   C G    C    D G


[Verse]
          Em        D     G            C
All those questions in despair that discomfort your mind
       Am          G            C    G C
From a torrent you give for one sign
          Em         D  G               C
There may not be the answer you've been hoping to find
        Am             G           C
But the questions will glitter and shine

[Chorus]
D        G      C       G
Like the starry eyes of lovers
        Em               C G
And the moon beneath the waters
            G/A G/B C
Where the magic is  drawn
      G          D       G
If we lose sight of each other
       Em            C       G
I will meet you in a silence
             G/A G/B C
At the heart of  a   song
          D      G
The heart of the song
