Dm           F 
I was in the court of kings, 
  C                   Am 
I saw great halls and countless gems, 
      Dm                C    Am 
T'was where I heard Taliesin sing, 
       Dm                    C        Dm 
Of the love of women and the deeds of men. 
                 F 
The Awen's light filled his eyes, 
  C               Am 
A fire burned within his head, 
      Dm                 C        Am 
As he sang of times long past and cried, 
    Dm                 C   Dm 
For Merlin, Arthur and Galahad.

Verso 2:

Dm            F 
I have been a crashing wave, 
  C         Am 
A stallion across the sea, 
    Dm            C       Am 
And I have been a rutting stag, 
    Dm              C     Dm 
And I hold Albion's destiny. 
                     F 
The Cauldron deep in Annwn's mist, 
     C                  Am 
With Blackthorn staff I travelled there, 
    Dm          C        Am 
And Arthur whom fate did kiss, 
    Dm            C      Dm 
The Seven Castles we did dare!

Verso 3:

Dm              F 
I have seen the plants and trees, 
      C               Am 
Great Oak the Ash and sacred Thorn, 
Dm                 C      Am 
Bring Annwn's Host to its knees, 
    Dm            C         Dm 
And suffer mighty Gwydion's scorn. 
                          F 
But still the fight could not be won, 
  C                    Am 
Until they guessed the giant's name, 
Dm         C            Am 
Ravens and Alder on his shield, 
        Dm                    C       Dm
