-The Oak King-
--------------
This song has four different voices going on. First you have the narrator, then
you have the Father trying to save his dying son. Up next is the dying son. Then
we hear The Oak King come in, tempting the boy away from life.

Barely boy and almost ghost
Em G C G (C/G)
Son why do you cry and hide your face?
G D G D
Oh Father, the Oak King is king of this place,
Em G C G (C/G)
With a crown made of thistle and septer of reeds

Son, there's no Oak King, just the wind and the trees
(Slide Prog.)

My prince, my love, I knew you'd come

Cast your blues upon the tide

Oh father, Oh father, don't leave me I pray

Oh son, with his palaces of silver and gold

At the edge of the woods and the break of the day,

The father looked down where his son used to lay,

And in grief and in sorrow, in sorrow and grief,
C G B7 Em
Wondered what kind of king could ever be such a thief?
