2 2 2 3 4 4 4 5 (4) 5 4 3
If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine
(3) (3) (3) 4 (4) 4 4 5 4 3
And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung,
2 2 2 3 4 4 5(4) 5 4 3
Would you hear my voice come thru the music,
5 5 5 (5) (4) 4 4 4 (4) 4
Would you hold it near as it were your own?
2 2 2 3 4 4 5 (4) 5 4 3
It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken,
(3) (4) 5 (4)(3) (4) (3)(2)
Perhaps they're better left unsung.
2 3 4 4 5(4)5 4 3
I don't know, don't really care
5 5 (5) (4) 4 4 (4) 4
Let there be songs to fill the air.
(4) 4 (4)4 (4) (3)(2)2
Ripple in still water,
2 3 4 (4) 4(4) (3)
When there is no pebble tossed,
4 4 4 3
Nor wind to blow.
2 2 3 4 4 4 5(4) 5 4 3
Reach out your hand if your cup be empty,
(3) (3) (3) 4 (4) 4 4 5(4)5 4 3
If your cup is full may it be again,
2 2 3 4 4 5(4) 5 4 3
Let it be known there is a fountain,
5 5 (5) (4) 4 4 4 (4) 4
That was not made by the hands of men.
2 2 3 4 4 5(4) 5 4 3
There is a road, no simple highway,
(3) (3) 4 (4) 4 4 5(4)5 4 3
Between the dawn and the dark of night,
2 2 3 4 4 5(4) 5 4 3
And if you go no one may follow,
5 5 (5) (4) 4 4 (4) 4
That path is for your steps alone.
(4) 4 (4)4 (4) (3)(2)2
Ripple in still water,
2 3 4 (4) 4(4) (3)
When there is no pebble tossed,
4 4 4 3
Nor wind to blow.
2 2 3 4 4 5(4) 4 3 (*)
You, who choose to lead, must follow
(3) (4) 5 (4) 5 (4) (3)(2)
But if you fall you fall alone,
2 2 3 4 4 5(4) 5 4 3
If you should stand then who's to guide you?
5 5 5 (5) (4) 4 4 4 (4) 4
If I knew the way I would take you home.
2 2 2 3 4 4 5(4) 5 4 3 (3)(3) 4 (4) 4 4 5 (4) 5 4 3
La dee da da da, La da da da da, Da da da, Da da, Da da da da da
2 2 3 4 4 5(4) 5 4 3 5 5 (5)(4) 4 4 (4) 4
La da da da, La da da, Da da, La da da da, La da, Da da.
* Thanks to user GreatMooseLake, who posted most of this originally. I found that his version was missing the first line of the fifth verse. Underlined above. Coincidentally, that was his first attempt at posting a tab as a new harp player. Similarly, this is my first contribution.
