	        E            E4 
Young man, up on the hillside 
E            E4 
Teaching new ways 
F#m 
Each word, winning them over 
A2          B4         C#m 
Each heart a kindled flame 

E          E4 
Old men, watch from the outside 
E              E4 
Guarding their prey 
F#m 
Threated by the voice of a paragon 
A2            B4     C#m 
Leading their lambs away 
A2            B4   C#m 
Leading them far away
