Verse 1
She moved (B minor) through the fair with a smile (F sharp minor) in her eyes
So pure (G major) and (D major) graceful and free (A major)
And (B minor) caught the attention
of one (G major) who was there
A Can (D major) dlestick- maker, (A major) he
(G major) Handsome and young, a craftsman (D major) fine
Smit (A major) ten by her that day (B minor)
And so (G major) then he wrote down a (D major) poem
for her that would say (A major)
(D major) "Take me (A major) in your (G major) hands tonight (D major)
(G major) Come through the (D major) parlour by (E minor) candlelight
(A major) (D major) With (A major) thee I will (G major) wait this (D major) night
(G major) Chase away (D major) shadows and stay (E minor)
'til the morn (A major) ing is (D major) nigh"
But the (B minor) journey of love is a (F sharp minor) rocky road
And (G major) comes with (D major) many a spill (A major)
He (B minor) wooed and pursued
her for (G major) more than a year
And (D major) then she said I (A major) will
He (G major) made her a gift (D major) of a candlestick
(A major) On their wedding (B minor) day
And (G major) written in silver around (D major) in the words,
that did say (A major)
(D major) "Take (A major) me in your (G major) hands tonight (D major)
(G major) Come through the (D major) parlour by (E minor) candlelight
(A major) (D major) With thee (A major) I will (G major) wait this (D major) night
(G major) Chase away shadows (D major) and (E minor) stay 'til the morn (A major)
ing is (D major) nigh" (B minor) (F sharp minor) (G major) (D major) (E minor) (D major) (A major) (D major)
That (B minor) candlestick was so much
loved (F sharp minor) and admired
But hun (G major) dreds of years (D major) would go (A major) by
'Twas (B minor) there in an old Curios (G major) ity shop
I found (D major) it, forgotten by (A major) time
(G major) Blackened with age but soon (D major) to shine
(A major) Beauty from long ago (B minor)
And I (G major) often consider all (D major) those
who have held it be (A major) fore
(D major) "Take me (A major) in your (G major) hands tonight (D major)
(G major) Come through the (D major) parlour by (E minor) candlelight
(A major) (D major) With thee (A major) I will (G major) wait this (D major) night
(G major) Chase away shadows (D major) and stay (E minor) 'til
the morn (A major) ing is (D major) nigh (A major)
(D major) "Take me (A major) in your (G major) hands tonight (D major)
(G major) Come through the (D major) parlour by (E minor) candlelight
(A major) (D major) With thee (A major) I will (G major) wait this (D major) night
(G major) Chase away shadows (D major) and stay (E minor) 'til
the morn (A major) ing is (D major) nigh (A major) (G major) (D major)
(G major) Chase away shadows (D major) and stay (E minor)
'til the (A major) morning is nigh"
