    Verse 1
    When 
    the 
    snow peels 
    thaw 
    and the 
    streambeds 
    crawl 
    to the 
    waterfall 
    and 

    the 
    river 
    I'll 
    turn 
    my 
    face 
    to the 
    bright 
    green space 
    of the 
    mother 
    and 
    my 
    di
    ver 

    No 
    man 
    has 
    made 
    a 
    ring 
    of 
    jade 

    like 
    green 
    corn 
    in 
    the husk 

    No 
    man 
    could 
    own 
    a 
    turquoise 

    stone 
    as 
    deep 
    blue 
    as 
    the 
    dusk 

    So 
    come 
    away 
    from your 
    workin' 
    day 

    and 
    laugh 
    and 
    let 
    your 
    head 
    go 

    Bring 
    along 
    an 
    old 
    -time 
    song 
    for 
    dancin' 

    in 
    the 
    meadow 


    Leave 
    your 
    bedside 
    for a 
    moonlight 
    ride 

    where the 
    midnight 
    air 
    is 
    warmer 

    We'll 
    sink 
    with the 
    quail 
    and the 
    cottontail, 

    this 
    tale 
    escapes 
    the 
    farmer. 

    Deep 
    plump 
    thicket 
    in the 
    bramble 
    bush 

    where the 
    quiet 
    creatures 
    hide 

    Are 
    part 
    of 
    me 
    a 
    mystery 

    which 
    I 
    accept 
    with 
    pride. 

    If 
    I 
    must 
    stay 
    it'll 
    lay 
    all 
    day 
    like 
    a 

    marcher 
    in 
    the 
    hedgerow 

    When 
    the 
    hunter's 
    gone 
    it's 
    all 
    night 
    long 
    for 

    dancing 
    in 
    the 
    meadow! 



    When 
    the 
    summer's 
    over 
    and 
    come 

    October 

    And 
    the evening 
    air 
    is 
    crisper 

    In 
    the mist 
    and 
    smoke 
    by the 
    twisted 
    oak 

    I 
    listen 
    to the 
    branches 
    whis
    per 

    Barn 
    dancers 
    reel, 
    the 
    furrowed 
    field 

    Must 
    yield 
    and 
    quickly 
    turn 

    Harp 
    is 
    gone, 
    the 
    whodell 
    song 

    is 
    one 
    we 
    now 
    must 
    learn 

    Who, 
    who, 
    who 
    are 
    you? 

    If 
    it's 
    you 
    who 
    said 
    so 

    Who 
    could it 
    be? 

    It's 
    only 
    me, 

    I'm 
    dancing 
    in 
    the 
    meadow 

    When 
    the 
    seasons 
    pass 
    and 
    the hourglass 

    has 
    all 
    too 
    quickly 
    shattered 

    You'll 
    lay 
    me 
    low 
    beneath 
    the 

    snow 
    and 
    wonder 
    if 
    I 
    mattered 

    Late 
    in 
    the 
    night, 

    your 
    hair 
    gone 
    white 
    will 
    surely 
    stand 
    on 
    end 

    You'll 
    hear 
    me 
    sing 
    my banjo, 

    ring 
    the 
    voice 
    of 
    your 
    old 
    friend 

    If 
    you get 
    brave, 

    run 
    to my 
    grave 
    and 
    holler, 

    Are 
    you 
    dead? 

    No, 
    no 
    tooth 
    don't 
    can 
    cover 
    my 
    bones 

    I'm 
    dancing 
    in 
    the 
    meadow! 





    Thank for watching.

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
