[Verse 1]
A D
If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine
A
And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung
D
Would you hear my voice come through the music
A E D A
Would you hold it near as it were your own
[Verse 2]
D
It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken
A
Perhaps they're better left unsung
D
I don't know, don't really care
A E D A
Let there be songs to fill the air
[Chorus]
Bm E
Ripple in still water
A D
When there is no pebble tossed
B7 E
Nor wind to blow
[Verse 3]
A D
Reach out your hand if your cup be empty
A
If your cup is full may it be again
D
Let it be known there is a fountain
A E D A
That was not made by the hands of men
[Verse 4]
D
There is a road, no simple highway
A
Between the dawn and the dark of night
D
And if you go no one may follow
A E D A
That path is for your steps alone
[Chorus]
Bm E
Ripple in still water
A D
When there is no pebble tossed
B7 E
Nor wind to blow
[Verse 5]
A D
You, who choose to lead, must follow
A
But if you fall you fall alone
D
If you should stand then who's to guide you
A E D A
If I knew the way I would take you home
