Misty Mountain(Cavaco chords)

	        Intro: F  G  Am  (4x)  F 

        G     Am 
Off the Misty Mountain 
     F       G        Am 
Wild flowers bind the ground 
F           G       Am 
Down by the rushing river 
           F          G        Am 
Force will wear those boulders down 
        F    G        Am 
Me, I'm underneath my covers 
        F         G       Am 
Me, I'm trapped inside my brain 


          F        G     Am 
While up above the Misty Mountain 
    F        G       Am 
Up above the rushing river 
    F        G      Am 
Up above the bed of longing 
    F     G         Am     -pause- 
The eagle takes the wind 


 
    C     G         F 
The eagle takes the wind, my friend 
                              C 
You know, the eagle takes the wind 
            G        F 
It makes me think of this my friend 
                     G       Am 
Where does the eagle live in me? 



Instrumental: F  G  Am  (4x) 


     F        G            Am 
I go crawling through this city 
           F         G     Am 
I say this city will be my home 
        F             G       Am 
I say, 'Woman you are halfway pretty' 
          F     G   Am 
'May, you never be alone' 
      F        G     Am 
Be it scorn or be it favour 
      F     G      Am 
Be it but a moment gone 


      F       G        Am 
But I stood before the mirror 
        F    G     Am 
Like an open-ended cavern 
       F               G       Am 
Like a breath held in, inhaled holding 
      F      G       Am     -pause- 
And I barely knew my name 


 
  C      G       F 
I barely knew my name, my friend 
                 C 
I barely knew my name 
            G        F 
It makes me think of this my friend 
           G       Am 
Where do I live in me? 



Instrumental: F  G  Am  (4x)   


Bridge: 
       F      G    Am 
It's a planet of resistance 
      F        G        Am 
And a whirling flame of choice 
           F        G     Am 
Are you my comrades in persistence? 
           F       G      Am 
I swear to know us by our voice 


                  F       G     Am 
But though we lay down in dusty caverns 
       F      G    Am 
We are ragged as a scar 
            F         G         Am 
And when we rest, our eyes stay open 
       F      G      Am    -pause- 
We are always off to war 


 
      C      G      F 
We're always off to war, my friend 
                              C 
You know, we're always off to war 
            G        F 
It makes me think of this my friend 
              G     Am 
Where can the quiet be? 



Instrumental: F  G  Am  (4x)   


               F     G  Am 
But is it underneath my covers? 
             F    G  Am 
Or trapped inside my brain? 
                F        G     Am 
(Is it at the door?) The Misty Mountain 
                F        G       Am 
(Is it at the door?) The rushing river 
             F        G      Am 
Is it at the bar? The bed of roaming? 
          F     G         Am 
Where the eagle takes the wind 
    F     G         Am 
The eagle takes the wind 
    F     G         Am 
The eagle takes the wind
