And these leafy mysteries
D D/F Bm A
And the silence of the eve

And in the shady trees I swing

With a face I can recognise

And all these leafy mysteries

And all the secrets of the tide

Just open up the world I find

So small to me

When there’s so much to see
A A
So much to be
D D/C D/B D
Day up and the grasses hiss
D D/C D/B D
Get up like sweet lips they kiss

See now that you’re part of it

That’s always been here

To breathe in to me
