Oh my Wayland,
         G
There's deer in the forests

Bbm     Gb
Oh my father
      Bbm
look down through the 

mountains and valleys

All for you.
 
 
[Verse]

N.C.      Bb
One fine morning
                  Bbsus2
As Dad was walking
        Db       Cm       F7
Just to see what he could see
 
    Bb   Bbsus2 Bb
He spied
               Bbsus2
A little white rabbit
        Db        Cm     
He was frozen as solid as 
         F7
he could be
 
         Bb   Bbsus2
And dad cried
       Bb           Bbsus2
As he knelt down beside him
 
        Bb    Db  
And he asked God, 
             Cm  Ab     F7
 "How could you be so cruel?"

 
         Bb         Bb5
And his heart broke,
                            Bb
For the little white rabbit
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

          D#            F
"But you see that the owl
       Gm                 Bb
Would never have been so gentle
               Bb5
And God is so kind."
 
 
[Chorus]

        Bb
I love Wayland 'cause he's strong.
       Ab   D#               Bb5
And I love him 'cause he's weak.
         Abm   D#        D#m  D#
And the rabbit is runniiing
    Bbsus2  Bb5
Withiiiiin him.
 
 
[Break]

G7            G
Oh my Wayland,
 
The children are waiting
                         
And berries are ripe down 
   Fm
below the hill.
 
Bbm      Bb
Oh, my father,
                Bbm     
The shadows of nighttime 
                 Bb
can't touch you.
 
Immortal go quickly
                          F7
Be thankful the water is cool.
            Bb   Bb5
Drink your fill.
 
 
[Verse]

            Bb
Today as I walked 

'long beside him
         Db         Cm  
I said, "Dad why do you 
 C       F7
look so sad?"
 
    Bb                        Bbsus2  Bbsus4 Bb
He turned as he stood by the doorway,
           Db        
he said, "Things are 
     Cm       Abm     F7
not like they used to be."
 
 
   Bb     Bb5
I smiled,
              Bbsus2
As if I could teach him.
        Db         Cm          F7
I said "Dad, it's mercy in disguise.
 
          Bb      Bbsus2
Once you told me
                  Bbsus2   Bb
Of a little white rabbit,
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

         D#             F
And you said that the owl
       Gm                Fsus4
Would never have been so gentle
     F             Bb   Bb5
And God's been so kind."
 
 
[Chorus]

       Bb
And I love you 

'cause you're strong.
       Ab   D#  
And I love you 
                Bb
'cause you're weak.
 
          Abm  D#
And the rabbit is running
    Bb5  Bb
Within  me.
