You (G) say that you have (Em) heard the tales

cnd (C) rightly so you (D) may

But (Em) I have one that (C) I would love

To (D) sing for you (G) today

I traveled over mountainpass

cnd through the wind and rain

I stopped in Martha Burry's Inn

cnd thought it'd be my last

cnd sometimes when I tread the peak

I'd hear a quiet sound

That (Em) settled in my (D) wayward ear

cnd (C) followed me (G)around.



(Em) I am a bard, (C) a wanderlust

cnd (G)I am made to (D) sing

(Em)Lightfoot and (C) lark hearted

(D)my fingers love the (G)strings



I left the road to follow fast

c whisper, a suggestion

Through the mountainside I came

To ease my song obsession

I heard it in my blood and bones

c thunder in the air

Over jagged rock and stones

Into a dragon's laire.

His scales where sterling silver,

Tooth and claw a striking white.

His voice was deep and dulcet as

It echo'd in the heights

“Womanling, you've left your fire

What did you think to find,

For don't you know, I hunger and

We feast upon your kind.”



I am a bard, a wanderlust

cnd I am made to sing

Lightfoot and lark hearted

My fingers love the strings



I answered in an honest truth,

It was your voice that called

From through the mountainside I came

I have been clear enthralled

cnd if I die to hear you sing

My life is better lost

For just one song before I go

It would be worth the cost.

The Dragon laughed and settled down

He sang to me a tune

I couldn't help but hum along

It ended far too soon

“Would that the mountain had a heart,

Would that the wind had breath

If stars could hum, and ocean drum

Such music, light and death.”



I am a bard, a wanderlust

cnd I am made to sing

Lightfoot and lark hearted

My fingers love the strings



We sang under that pale moonlight

cnd I bargained for my life

To die or stay forever and

Become a dragon's wife.

I settled in the mountainside

cn aria at dawn

The harmony at brightest day

ct dusk an evensong

In time I told him who I'd been,

He shared with me his name

But I am a creature of the air

My voice grew soft and strained

With every day I lived I lost

c little off my soul

cnd so my husband made a choice:

The Dragon let me go.



I am a bard, a wanderlust

cnd I am made to sing

Light footed and lark hearted

My fingers love the strings



He gave to me a silver gem

Bound fast by a silver chain

He said to keep it by my heart

cnd there is still remains

The light is on the mountainside

The rumble in the clay

My husband sleeps under the sun

Where a sleeping dragon lay

I hoped that you enjoyed my song

For I'll be leaving soon

Im going home to my own love

To sing a happy tune.



I am a bard, a wanderlust

cnd I am made to sing

Light footed and lark hearted

My fingers love the strings x2
