I saw your daughter yesterday

As I was idle on the porch

She slept-walked from from your house
down the walkway

As though she'd done it all before
Bm 
D 
G 
And the moon was out

And in her gown beside the riverbed

She got down on her knees

the wind beneath her feet

Oh, she waltzed with the dead

And everything was bathed

ran out in the water
F#m 
With a lantern in my hand
G 
I was waste deep and shivering
I took her wrist and walked her in
Bm 
I was loathe to interrupt her
F#m 
But I had to get   her home
G 
If people were to see this
D 
G 
They'd gather up, raise hell and burn her alive
D

Verse 5
G 
Don't you mind, don't you mind,
she'll be fine
Tie a bell around her ankle
Before she lays down at night
And the sound of her footsteps
Will wake me in time
Don't you mind, don't you mind
I'll watch over her
As though she were mine
