[Verse 1]
A G D G
In another times forgotten space
A G D G
Your eyes looked from your mother's face
A G D G
Wildflower seed on the sand and stone
A G D G
May the four winds blow you safely home
[Chorus]
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew

x4
[Verse 2]
A G D G
I'll tell you where the four winds dwell
A G D G
In Franklin's tower there hangs a bell
A G D G
It can ring, turn night to day
A G D G
It can ring like fire when you lose your way
[Chorus]
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
[Verse 3]
A G D G
God save the child that rings that bell
A G D G
May have one good ring baby, you can't tell
A G D G
One watch by night, one watch by day
A G D G
If you get confused, listen to the music play
[Solo]
A G D G
x4
[Verse 4]
A G D G
Some come to laugh their past away
A G D G
Some come to make it just one more day
A G D G
Whichever way your pleasure tends
A G D G
If you plant ice, you're gonna harvest wind
[Chorus]
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
[Verse 5]
A G D G
In Franklin's tower the four winds sleep
A G D G
Like four lean hounds, the lighthouse keep
A G D G
Wildflower seed on the sand and wind
A G D G
May the four winds blow you home again
[Chorus]
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
You better roll Away the Dew
[Outro] (repeat and fade)
A G D G
Roll Away the Dew
A G D G
You better roll Away the Dew
