There
             Abmaj7
Beneath the willow tree
                           Abmaj7

I learned that everything

Has breath inside

They
               Abmaj7
Were pointing ever east
Eb            F            Abmaj7
 To see the ever-turning aeon cease

Their wills were ever bent on waiting with all their might

There

Beyond the palisade

 I saw the morning lead a cavalcade

They made a marvel of a display and it made me cry
