[Verse 1]
G // C / /
If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine
C / / / / G / /
And my tunes were played on the harp un-strung
G / / / C /
Would you hear my voice come through the music
C / G / D / C / G /
Would you hold it near as it were your own?
[Verse 2]
/ G / / / C /
It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken
/C / / /G
Perhaps they're better left un - sung
G / / C / /
I don't know, don't really care
G D / C G / / /
Let there be songs to fill the air
[Chorus]
/Am / / D /
Ripple in still water
/G C /
When there is no pebble tossed
/ A / D
Nor wind to blow
[Verse 3]
G / / C /
Reach out your hand if your cup be empty
C / / / G
If your cup is full may it be a- gain
G / / / C / /
Let it be known there is a fountain
G / D / C G/
That was not made by the hands of men
Verse 4
/G / / / C /
There is a road, no simple highway
C / / / / G
Between the dawn and the dark of night
G / / / C / /
And if you go no one may follow
G D / / C G / / /
That path is for your steps alone
[Chorus]
/Am / / D /
Ripple in still water
/G C /
When there is no pebble tossed
/ A / D
Nor wind to blow
[Verse 5]
G // / C /
You who choose to lead must follow
C / / G /
But if you fall you fall alone
G / / / C / /
If you should stand then who's to guide you?
G / D / C G /
If I knew the way I would take you home
[Outro Verse]
G / / / C /
Lat dee da da, La da da da da, da
C / / / G /
La da da, la da, da da da-ah, da da
G / / / C / /
Lat da dat da, Lah da-ah da da, da
G / D / C G /
La da da da, Lah da da da da
