# 1 - All Souls Night
Capo 5
[Verse]
Bonfires dot the rolling hillside
Figures dance around and around
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
Moving to the pagan sound.
[Verse]
Somewhere in a hidden memory
Images float before my eyes       
Of fragrant nights of straw and of bonfires
And dancing till the next sunrise.        
[Verse]
I can see lights in the distance
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Candles and lanterns are dancing dancing
A waltz on All Souls Night.
[Verse]
Figures of cornstalks bend in the shadows
Held up tall as the flames leap high
The green knight holds the holly bush
To mark where the old year passes by.
[Verse]
I can see lights in the distance
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Candles and lanterns are dancing dancing
A waltz on All Souls Night.
[Verse]
Bonfires dot the rolling hillside
Figures dance around and around
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
Moving to the pagan sound.
[Verse]
Standing on the bridge that crosses
The river that goes out to the sea
The wind is full of a thousand voices
They pass by the bridge and me.
[Verse]
I can see lights in the distance
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Candles and lanterns are dancing dancing
A waltz on All Souls Night. (2x)

# 2 - Bonny Portmore
[Verse]
O Bonnie Portmore I am sorry to have seen
Such woeful destruction of your ornament tree
For it stood on your shore for many's the long day
Till the long boats from Antrim came to float it away
[Verse]
O Bonnie Portmore you shine where you stand
And the more I think on you the more I think long
If I had you now as I had once before
All the lords in old England would not purchase Portmore
[Verse]
All the birds in the forest they do bitterly weep
Sighing "Where shall we shelter o where shall we sleep?"
For the oak and the ash they are all cut down
And the walls of Bonnie Portmore they are down to the ground
[Verse]
O Bonnie Portmore you shine where you stand
And the more I think on you the more I think long
If I had you now as I had once before
All the lords in old England would not purchase Portmore.

# 4 - The Lady Of Shalott
          (Full Long Version)
Capo 2
[Intro]
           
           
[Verse]
On either side of the river lie  
Long fields of barley and of rye  
That clothe the world and meet the sky  
Through the field the road runs by
To many towered Camelot  
And up and down the people go  
Gazing where the lilies blow  
'Round an island there below
The island of Shalott
[Verse]
Willows whiten aspens quiver  
Little breezes dusk and shiver  
Through the wave that runs forever  
By the island in the river
Flowing down to Camelot  
Four grey walls and four grey towers  
Overlook a space of flowers  
And the silent isle embowers
The Lady of Shalott
[Verse]
Only reapers reaping early  
In among the bearded barley  
Hear a song that echoes cheerly  
From the river winding clearly
Down to towered Camelot  
And by the moon the reaper weary  
Piling sheaves in uplands airy  
Listening whispers "'Tis the fairy
The Lady of Shalott"
[Instrumental]
                               
[Verse]
There she weaves by night and day
A magic web with colours gay  
She has heard a whisper say
A curse is on her if she stay
To look down to Camelot
She knows not what the curse may be  
And so she weaveth steadily  
Little other care hath she
The Lady of Shalott
[Verse]
And moving through a mirror clear
There hangs before her all the year  
Shadows of the world appear
There she sees the highway near
Winding down to Camelot
And sometimes through the mirror blue  
The knights come riding two and two  
She hath no loyal knight and true
The Lady of Shalott
[Verse]
But in her web she still delights
To weave the mirror's magic sights  
For often through the silent nights
A funeral with plumes and with lights
And music went to Camelot
Or when the moon was overhead  
Came two young lovers lately wed  
"I'm half sick of shadows" she said
The Lady of Shalott
[Instrumental]
                               
[Verse]
A bowshot from her bower eaves  
He rode between the barley sheaves  
The sun came dazzling through the leaves
And flamed upon the brazen greaves
Of bold Sir Lancelot  
A red cross knight forever kneel'd  
To a lady in his shield  
That sparkled on the yellow field
Beside remote Shalott
[Verse]
His broad clear brow in sunlight glowed
On burnished hooves his warhorse trode  
From underneath his helmet flowed
His coal black curls as on he rode
As he rode back to Camelot
And from the bank and from the river  
He flashed into the crystal mirror  
"Tirra Lirra" by the river
Sang Sir Lancelot
[Verse]
She left the web she left the loom  
She made three paces through the room  
She saw the water lily bloom  
She saw the helmet and the plume
She looked down to Camelot  
Out flew the web and floated wide  
The mirror cracked from side to side  
"The curse is come upon me" cried
The Lady of Shalott
[Instrumental]
                               
[Verse]
In the stormy east wind straining
The pale yellow woods were waning  
The broad stream in his banks complaining
Heavily the low sky raining
Over towered Camelot
Down she came and found a boat  
Beneath a willow left afloat  
And round about the prow she wrote
'The Lady of Shalott'
[Verse]
Down the river's dim expanse
Like some bold seer in a trance  
Seeing all his own mischance
With a glassy countenance
She looked to Camelot
And at the closing of the day  
She loosed the chain and down she lay  
The broad stream bore her far away
The Lady of Shalott
[Instrumental]
                               
[Verse]
Heard a carol mournful holy  
Chanted loudly chanted lowly  
'Til her blood was frozen slowly  
And her eyes were darkened wholly
Turned to towered Camelot  
For 'ere she reached upon the tide  
The first house by the waterside  
Singing in her song she died
The Lady of Shalott
[Verse]
Under tower and balcony
By garden wall and gallery  
A gleaming shape she floated by
Dead pale between the houses high
Silent into Camelot
And out upon the wharfs they came  
Knight and burgher lord and dame  
And 'round the prow they read her name
'The Lady of Shalott'
[Instrumental]
                               
[Verse]
Who is this? And what is here?
And in the lighted palace near  
Died the sound of royal cheer  
They crossed themselves for fear
The Knights at Camelot  
Lancelot mused a little space  
He said "She has a lovely face  
God in his mercy lend her grace
The Lady of Shalott"
[Outro]

# 5 - Greensleeves
[Intro]
- - - -
[Verse]
   Alas my love you do me wrong
   To cast me off discourteously;
   And I have loved you oh so long
   Delighting in your company.
[Verse]
   Greensleeves was my delight
   Greensleeves my heart of gold
   Greensleeves was my heart of joy
   And who but my lady Greensleeves.
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
   I have been ready at your hand
   To grant whatever thou would'st crave;
   I have waged both life and land
   Your love and goodwill for to have.
[Verse]
   Greensleeves was my delight
   Greensleeves my heart of gold
   Greensleeves was my heart of joy
   And who but my lady Greensleeves.
[Instrumental]
    - - - -
[Verse]
   Thy petticoat of sendle white
   With gold embroidered gorgeously;
   Thy petticoat of silk and white
   And these I bought gladly.
[Verse]
   Greensleeves was my delight
   Greensleeves my heart of gold
   Greensleeves was my heart of joy
   And who but my lady Greensleeves.

# 7 - Courtyard Lullaby
Capo 2
[Intro]
[Verse]
Within the deep night sky
The stars lie in its embrace
The courtyard still in its sleep
Peace comes over your face
[Verse]
"Come to me" it sings
"Hear the pulse of the land
The ocean's rhythms pull
To hold your heart in its hand"
[Verse]
When the wind blows strong
Across the cypress trees
The nightbirds cease their song
So gathers memories
[Verse]
Last night you spoke of a dream
Where forests stretched to the east
And each bird sang its song
A unicorn joined in a feast
[Verse]
And in a corner stood
A pomegranate tree
With wild flowers there
No mortal eye could see
[Verse]
Yet still some mystery befalls
Sure as the cock crows at morn
The world in stillness keeps
The secret of babes to be born
[Verse]
Come to me my love
Hear the pulse of the land
The ocean's rhythms pull
To hold your heart in its hand
[Verse]
I heard an old voice say
"Don't go far from the land
The seasons have their way
No mortal can understand"

# 8 - The Old Ways
[Intro]
  /  /      /  /    
[Chorus]
The thundering waves are calling me home home to you   
The pounding sea is calling me home home to you   
[Verse]
On a dark New Year's night on the west coast of Clare
I heard your voice singing
Your eyes danced the song your hands played the tune
'Twas a vision before me  
[Verse]
We left the music behind and the dance carried on
As we stole away to the seashore
And smelt the brine felt the wind in our hair
With sadness you paused
[Verse]
Suddenly I knew that you'd have to go
Your world was not mine your eyes told me so
Yet it was there I felt the crossroads of time
And I wondered why     
[Verse]
As we cast our gaze on the tumbling sea
A vision came o'er me  
Of thundering hooves and beating wings
In the clouds above
[Verse]
Turning to go heard you call out my name
Like a bird in a cage spreading its wings to fly
"The old ways are lost" you sang as you flew
And I wondered why     
[Chorus]
The thundering waves are calling me home home to you   
The pounding sea is calling me home home to you   
[Chorus]
The thundering waves are calling me home home to you   
The pounding sea is calling me home home to you   
[Chorus]
The thundering waves are calling me home home to you   
The pounding sea is calling me home home to you

[Intro]
                  
                     
              
           
[Verse]
Fear no more the heat o' the sun__
Nor the furious winters' rages__
Thou thy worldly task__ hast done
Home art gone and ta'en thy wages
[Verse]
Golden lads and girls all must__
As chimney-sweepers come to dust
The sceptre learning physic must__
All follow this and come to dust        
[Verse]
Fear no more the frown o' th' great
Thou art past the tyrant's stroke
Care no more to clothe and to eat__
To thee the reed the reed is as the oak
[Verse]
The sceptre learning physic must__
All follow this and come to dust
All lovers young all lovers must__
Consign to thee and come to dust
