[Verse 1]
Am Em
Can ye dance with silver moon steps on the love couch of the sand?
G C Am
I will sing and play a fairy reel upon the swany lute
Am Em
A tale of silver sandals or of an elf who loved to fish
G C Am
For the twinkles in the evening waves with an oaken dish
 
[Verse 2]
G D
As ye skip and spin and reel, can ye loose thy velvet band
C A D
And send thy mane a-tossing to the kissing of the moon?
Am Em
And as ye bid me enter, thine eyes will open love
G C Am
To the allness of the smallness and the starry sky above

[Verse 3]
G D
As ye skip and spin and reel, can ye loose thy velvet band

And send thy mane a-tossing to the kissing of the moon?

To the allness of the smallness and the starry sky above
