Lime-Tree Arbour
E|-------------|

[Verse]
Am
  The boatman calls from the lake
Dm                                 G G Am
  A lone loon dives upon the water
  
I put my hand over hers
F             Dm        C
  Down in the lime-tree arbour


[Verse]
Am
  The wind in the trees is whispering
Dm                               G G Am
  Whispering low that I love her
 
She puts her hand over mine
F                  Dm     C
  Down in the lime-tree arbour


[Chorus]
G              
  Through every breath that I breathe
    Am              F
And every place I go
C   Fm         C            Am
    There is a hand that protects me
F       G           C
  And I do love her so

[Bridge]
Am    C   x2


[Verse]
Am
   There will always be suffering
Dm                           G
  It flows through life like water
Am
   I put my hand over hers
F             Dm        C
  Down in the lime tree arbour


[Verse]
Am
   The boatman he has gone
Dm                            G G Am
   loons have flown for cover
 
She puts her hand over mine
F             Dm        C
  Down in the lime tree arbour


[Chorus]
G
  Through every word that I speak
    Am                 F
And every-thing i know
C   Fm         C            Am
    There is a hand that protects me
F          G        C
  And I do love her so
