In a castle keep, in a vault of stone
F C G
In a house at the end of the lane
C C/B F C
An old man weeps in his door alone
F C
And he sings out this mournful refrain
F C
She will not come back
G C
She will not come back
F C G
Though the mountains fall down to the sea
F C G Am
And the sky burns to cinders and the rivers runs black
F G C G
She will not come back to me

No lightning reed from his books of lore
F C G
And the staff in the corner, no fire

And the crystal ball, always bright before

Is grey as the dust of desire

She will not come back
G C
She will not come back

Though we call on the powers that be
F C G Am
They will cipher this message in his cold zodiac

And joy my love was a dancing spring

And life was the touch of her lips

And a brook ran mad to my cave downstream

From the miracle hills of her hips

She will not come back

She will not come back

Though the stars hang their tears in the trees

And tireless Orion lies spent in his tracks

She will not come back
G Am
She will not come back
F G Am F
She will not come back to me
C G C
She will not come back to me
