A [Am]young man walked through the forest with his quiver and hunting bow
He heard a young girl [Dm]singing and [Em]followed the sound be[Am]low
There he found the [Dm]maiden who [Em]lives in the [Am]willow
He [Am]called to her as she listened from a ring of toadstools, red
Come with me my [Dm]maiden come [Em]from thy willow [Am]bed
She looked at him se[Dm]renely and [Em]only shook her [Am]head
[Am]See me now, a ray of light in the moon dance
[Am]See me now, I [Dm]cannot [Em]leave this [Am]place
[Am]Hear me now, a strain of song in the forest
[Am]Don't ask me to [Bm7b5]follow where you [E7]lead
A [Am]young man walked through the forest with a flower and coat of green
His love had hair like [Dm]fire her [Em]eyes an emerald [Am]sheen
She wrapped herself in [Dm]beauty so [Em]young and so se[Am]rene
He [Am]stood there under the willow and he gave her the yellow bloom
Girl, my heart you've [Dm]capture. Oh, [Em]I would be your [Am]groom
She said she'd wed him [Dm]never not [Em]near, nor far, nor [Am]soon
[Am]See me now, a ray of light in the moon dance
[Am]See me now, I [Dm]cannot [Em]leave this [Am]place
[Am]Hear me now, a strain of song in the forest
[Am]Don't ask me to [Bm7b5]follow where you [E7]lead
A [Am]young man walked through the forest with an axe sharp as a knife
I'll take the green-eyed [Dm]fairy and [Em]she shall be my [Am]wife
With her, I'll raise my [Dm]children with [Em]her, I'll live my [Am]life
The [Am]maiden wept when she heard him when he said he'd set her free
He took his axe and [Dm]used it to [Em]bring down her ancient [Am]tree
Now your willow's [Dm]fallen now [Em]you belong to [Am]me
[Am]See me now (see me now, see me now) a ray of light in the moon dance
[Am]See me now (see me now, see me now) I [Dm]cannot [Em]leave this [Am]place
[Am]Hear me now (hear me now, hear me now) a ray of light in the moon dance
Don't ask me (don't ask me) to [Bm7b5]follow where you [E7]lead
She [Am]followed him out of the forest and [Dm]collapsed up[Em]on the [Am]earth
Her [Am]feet had walked but a distance from the [Dm]green land [Em]of her [Am]birth
She [Am]faded into a flower that would [Dm]bloom for [Em]one bright [Am]eve
He [Am]could not take from the forest what was [Dm]never [Em]meant to [Am]leave
