C E7sus4 E7
D D/C# D/C
Solemn faced the village settles down,
D/B Bb6
undetected by the stars
A A#dim7 D D/C#
And the hangman plays the mandolin before he goes to sleep
D/C D/B Bb6
and the last thing on his mind
A A#dim7
is the wild-eyed boy imprisoned
D D/C#
'neath the covered wooden shaft,
D/C D/B Bb6
folds the rope into it's bag
A A#dim7
Blows his pipe of smolders,
D D/C#
blankets smoke into the room,
D/C D/B Bb6
and the day will end for some
C G F E7sus4 E7
As the night begins for one
D D/C# D/C
Staring through the message in his eyes
D/B Bb6
lie a solitary son
A A#dim7
from the mountain called the freecloud
D D/C#
where the eagle dare not fly,
D/C D/B Bb6
and the patience in his sigh
A A#dim7
gives no indication
D D/C# D/C
for the townsmen to decide,
D/B Bb6
so the village dreadful yawns
A A#dim7
Pronouncing gross diversion
D D/C# D/C
as the label for the dog.
D/B Bb6
Ooo it's the madness in his eyes
C G D D/C# D/C
As he breaks the night to cry, Its really me,
D/B Bb6
really you and really me
A A#dim7 D D/C# D/C
It's so hard for us to really be
D/B Bb6
Really you, really me,
A A#dim7
You'll lose me though I'm always
D D/C# D/C D/B C C
really free
C
And the mountain moved it's eyes
C7
to the world and realized
Bb Ab
Where the snow had saved a place
C E7sus4 E7
for the wild-eyed boy from freecloud
C
And the village dreadful cried
C7
as the rope began to rise
Bb Ab
For the smile stayed on the face
C E7sus4 E7
of the wild-eyed boy from freecloud
G C
And the women once proud clutched the heart of the crowd
G C
as the boulders smashed down from the mountains hand
Am C
And the magic in the stare of the wild-eyed boy said
Am C E7sus4 E7
"Stop Free Cloud, they won't think to cut me down, no, no, no!"
C F C F
But the cottages fell like a playing card hell
Bb F C
and the tears on the face of the wise boy
C F C F
came trembling down to the rumbling ground
Bb F C
and the missionary mystic of peace/love
D D/C# D/C D/B Bb6
Stumbled back to cry among the clouds
A A#dim7 D D/C# C
Kicking back the pebbles from the Free Cloud mountain's track
