As the sBmpring is made alive the winter Emdies
And the Bmfinal cries of creatures are long Embehind
And fBmull of spirit the village starts Emagain
With Bmone more year for a man to change his Emways
[Chorus 1]
I used to fBmeel all things around me sGtir,
F#mGrateful for all I received,
Taking in the Bmsounds and ways of creatures upon the GEarth
F#mGreat were the rivers I swam waning out the Bmsun
[Verse 2]
As the Bmwinter dies the Earth is brought to lEmife
And a thBmousand merchant ships sail to fEmind
A wBmorthy village to land and start agEmain
With Bmone more year for a man to change his Emways
[Chorus 2]
I used to fBmeel all things around me sGtir,
F#mGrateful for all I received,
Taking in the Bmsounds and ways of creatures upon the GEarth
F#mGreat were the rivers I swam waning out the Bmsun

I used to Bmfeel things around me Gstir
And hear the Bmsounds of creatures upon the GEarth
F#mGrateful for all I Greceived
F#mThrough the winter cold and Gspring
