Hurdy Gurdy Man

Donovan Leitch / Donovan: Hurdy Gurdy Man (1968)

	G	Bm	C	D
	Thrown like a star in	my vast sleep I	open my eyes to t	ake a peep

	G	Bm	C	D
	To find that I was	by the sea	gazing with tran	quility

	F	C	G
'Twas	then that the Hurdy	Gurdy Man came	singing songs of love.

	F	C	G	n.c.	G
	Then when the Hurdy	Gurdy Man came	singing songs	of	love.

	G	Bm	C	D
	Histories of	ages past	unenlightened	shadows cast.

	G	Bm	C	D
	Down through all e	ternity the	crying of hu	manity.

	F	C	G
'Tis	then that the Hurdy	Gurdy Man comes	singing songs of love.

	F	C	G	n.c.	G
	Then that the Hurdy	Gurdy Man comes	singing songs	of	love.

	G	Bm	C	D
	When the truth gets	buried deep Be	neath a thousand	years of sleep,

	G	Bm	C	D
	Time demands a	turn-around And	once again the	truth is found:

	F	C	G
A	wakening the Hurdy	Gurdy Man Who comes	singing songs of love.

	F	C	G	n.c.	G
A	wakening the Hurdy	Gurdy Man Who comes	singing songs	of	love.
