STILL WATERS AT NIGHT

JOAN BAEZ

Lyrics and music:Joan C Baez

Capo V

Key:

Intro :

Still waters at n ight in the darkest of da rk

but you rise as w hite as the birch tree's ba rk.

Or a pale wolf in w inter you look down and sh iver

at still w aters at n ight.

Your eyes are as b lack as the blackness you're fe aring

and yonder a b ridg e and a voice within he aring.

Come walk on me softly look down and yo u'll see

still w aters at n ight.

You've r eason to f ear there is no prot ection

but a g arland of e meralds and a moonlit ref lection

of a boat in the d istance will the devil take his chance

at still w aters at n ight.

So dance me a s mall d ance and the night cannot h urt you

nor the waters be s ilen t nor the emeralds dese rt you.

For the boat's full of bright scarves and wild hats amo ng them

songs of the v agabond it's to you he has s ung them

and shattered the s ilence of still w aters at (Outro) night.
