FOLK SONG
As recorded by Ash
(From the 1998 Album NU-CLEAR SOUNDS)
 
 
 
[Intro]
E      Amaj7  A  E
 
 
[Verse 1]
E
Lying in the long long grass
E
Blossom on the trees
A
Springtime's slipping away my love
     E
Yeah springtime's slipping away
E
When it comes around again
E
It will never be the same
A
Heaven's slipping away my love
     E
Yeah heaven's slipping away
E
Yeah heaven's slipping away
 
 
[Chorus]
E                    C#m
Walking through this changing season
A                  E
Sorrow spreads its wings
                C#m
We can't keep a hold on time
       A                B
Just receive what would bring
 
 
[Verse 2]
E
Lying in the long long grass
E
Clouds are drifting by
A
Springtime's slipping away my love
     E
Yeah springtime's slipping away
E
Dreaming in this lost domain
E
Which you'll never see again
A
Heaven's slipping away my love
     E
Yeah heaven's slipping away
E
Yeah heaven's slipping away
 
 
[Chorus]
E                    C#m
Walking through this changing season
A                  E
Sorrow spreads its wings
               C#m
Light a candle in your heart
A               E
Light it to the spring
                     C#m
Walking through this changing season
A                  E
Sorrow spreads its wings
                C#m
We can't keep a hold on time
       A                   B
Just receive what it would bring
 
 
[Bridge]
G#m             E
Mellow evenings in the spring
G#m                E
Full of warmth and hope
A                G#m
You are dreaming unaware
A                            E
Unaware that you are letting go
 
 
[Interlude]
E   Am   E   Am
E   Am   E   Am
 
 
[Chorus]
E                    C#m
Walking through this changing season
A                  E
Sorrow spreads its wings
                C#m
We can't keep a hold on time
       A                   E
Just receive what it would bring
                     C#m
Walking through this lonely season
A                  E
Sorrow spreads its wings
               C#m
Light a candle in your heart
A               B       E
Light it to the spring
 
 
[Outro]
A
Springtime's slipping away my love
     E
Yeah springtime's slipping away
A
Heaven's slipping away my love
     E
Yeah heaven's slipping away
