G D
In gentle pastel shades
Indistinct and somehow blurred
G D
Like childhood escapades
Gm D
The painting box is rather dear
G A7
But the paints themselves are cheap
G
Leave your pack at the side of the road
D
I'll show you where to sleep
verse 2
G D
Of a field of burning corn
The road opens out before you
G D
Like the womb where you were born
Gm D
There's no need to pretend again
G A7
To try and earn your keep
G
Leave your pack at the side of the road
D
I'll show you where to sleep
D G D G D Gm D G A7 G D
Bridge
F# G
And crowds will gather in the sun
A7 D
As stone madonnas weep
F# G
And the shepherd is a good man
A7
As he tends his flock of sheep
verse 3
D
In case you find your tortoise shell
G D
Is getting rather tight
You can wrap yourself in your magic cloak
G D
And disappear from sight
Gm D
And I will stand guard over you
G A7
As through the door you creep
G
Leave your pack at the side of the road
D
I'll show you where to sleep
