The Song Of Wandering Aengus chords by Donovan

[Intro]

Am
 
 
[Verse]

Am                G
I went out to the hazelwood
C         G        Dm
Because a fire was in my head
      C      
And I cut and 
G        Am
peeled a hazel wand
             G          Am
And hooked a berry on a thread
 
 
[Verse]

Am                  
And when white moths 

G
Were on the wing
    C                   
And moth-like stars were 

Dm
Flickering out
  C                 Am
I dropped the berry in a stream
             G             Am
And caught a little silver trout
 
 
[Verse]

Am                 G
When I had laid it on the floor
  C       G        Dm
I went to blow the fire aflame
    C                 Am
But something rustled on the floor
            G               Am
And someone called me by my name
 
 
[Verse]

Am              G
It had become a glimmering girl

C          G       Dm
With apple blossom in her hair

    C               Am
Who called me by my name and ran

          G                      
And faded through the 

            Am
Brightening air
 
 
[Verse]

Am                   G
Though I am old with wandering

        C      G         
Through hollow lands and 

Dm
Hilly lands

C           G         
I will find out where 

Am
she has gone
             G          
And kiss her lips and 

         Am
take her hands
 
 
[Verse]

Am                  
And walk among long 
G
dappled grass
C              G   
And pluck 'til time 
    Dm
and times are done
    C      G      Am
The silver apples of the moon
           G             Am
The golden apples of the sun
 
 
[Outro]

Am
Go, go away
Am
Out the way, 

get out of the way, 

out of the way
