[Verse]
G Em G
I went out to the hazel wood,
Am C G
Because a fire was in my head,
G Em G
And cut and peeled a hazel wand,
Am C D
And hooked a berry to a thread;
C G D
And when white moths were on the wing,
G Em G
And moth-like stars were flickering out,
Am C D
I dropped the berry in a stream
Am C D G
And caught a little silver trout.
[Verse]
G Em G
When I had laid it on the floor
Am C G
I went to blow the fire a-flame,
G Em G
But something rustled on the floor,
Am C D
And someone called me by my name:
C G D
It had become a glimmering girl
G Em G
With apple blossom in her hair
Am C D
Who called me by my name and ran
Am C D G
And faded through the brightening air.
[Verse]
G Em G
Though I am old with wandering
Am C G
Through hollow lands and hilly lands,
G Em G
I will find out where she has gone,
Am C D
And kiss her lips and take her hands;
C G D
And walk among long dappled grass,
G Em G
And pluck till time and times are done,
Am C D
The silver apples of the moon,
Am C D G
The golden apples of the sun.
