Intro:
This is a story
[Dm]About two children
[Dm]One who hid to be heard
[Dm]And another who ran to be remembered
[Dm]I present to you, "Kid & Leveret"
[Dm]Ooh-woah, ooh-woah, [Gm]ooh-woah, ooh-woah
[Dm]Ooh, woah, [Gm]oh-oh, oh
Chorus:
[Dm]Found in forgotten fields of flaxen
[Gm]I was the leveret in hiding
[Dm]Rowdy and rigorous they reave and rally
[Gm]There, where the houses once stood
Verse 1:
It used to be a [Dm]kingdom
[Dm]For a foolish majesty
Then he [Gm]put his hands over his ears
[Gm]And welcomed entropy
Camе t[Dm]the undergrowth
[Dm]Overburdеning before
What is l[Gm]left is a hamlet
[Gm]And the wails of yore
Chorus:
[Dm]Found in forgotten fields of flaxen
[Gm]I was the leveret in hiding
[Dm]Rowdy and rigorous they reave and rally
[Gm]There, where the houses once stood
Verse 2:
Bam, bam, bam
Down the [Dm]door and here I am
[Dm]Beyond the cranny
"Come hither," says the [Gm]feathered lady
[Gm]"Fare thee well to the hound that held your home"
[Dm]Foreboding, farther off we'll go
Chorus:
[Dm]Found in forgotten fields of flaxen
[Gm]I was the leveret in
hiding -You were the leveret in hiding-
[Dm]Rowdy and rigorous they reave and rally
[Gm]There, where the houses once stood
Post-Chorus:
[Dm]Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh -Oh-oh, oh-oh-
[Gm]Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh -Oh-oh, oh-oh-
[Dm]Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh -Oh-oh, oh-oh-
[Gm]Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh -Oh-oh, oh-oh-
Bridge:
Her father was a doll maker
He taught her how to weave one's movement
The marionette who took the thread
When the baron lost his head
Oh!
a [Dm]spider, a spinner, be[Gm]believe her, she's a mother
[Dm]a woe of many morns, amidst a s[Gm]storm
[Gm]She receives a knock on the door
knock knock knock
a [Dm]sight of silver and locks of gold
Kid[Gm]Kid among beast of metal and malice
[Dm]I was real and she was alone
B[Gm]Bird among bears of bark and leaves
[Dm]Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh -Oh-oh, oh-oh-
[Gm]Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah -Oh-oh, oh-oh-
[Dm]Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh -Oh-oh, oh-oh-
[Gm]Ah-oh, ah-oh -Oh-oh, oh-oh-
Chorus:
[Dm]Found in forgotten
[Dm]Bird among bears of bark and leaves
[Dm]Found in forgotten
[Dm]Bird among bears of bark and leaves
[Dm]Found in forgotten fields of flaxen
[Gm]I was the leveret -You were the leveret-
[Gm]In hiding -You are the lover, where the yarrow grows-
[Dm]Rowdy and rigorous they reave and rally
-I will be awakened, no longer I am puppeted-
[Gm]There, where the houses once stood
-String from your instrument-
[Dm]Found in forgotten fields of flaxen
-Rather from her fingers, dearest though she was-
[Gm]I was the leveret in hiding
-She never saw me silence, silence-
-I won't go far, I promise-
-Candles were a start now here I am at my brightest-
[Dm]Rowdy and rigorous they reave and rally
-Win or wound me with a kiss-
[Gm]There, where the houses once stood
-Find me where the Lark is-
-Find me where the yarrow grows-
[Dm]Found in forgotten fields of flaxen
-I will be awakened, no longer I am puppeted-
[Gm]I was the leveret in hiding
-String from your instrument-
-Rather from her fingers, dearest though she was-
[Dm]Rowdy and rigorous they reave and rally
-She never saw me at my brightest-
There, where the houses once stood
-However when that happens-
-Pray to never-
Outro:
[Dm]Take my hand -Take me far-
I'll l[Gm]let us wander -Wander away-
[Dm]Far from where -From-
We had on[Gm]once been strung -Once we were-
[Dm]I can see you not for your eyes
[Gm]I can hear you've left me entwined
[Dm]Where do we go?
[Dm]We're running slow
From the h[Gm]house
[Gm]From the hills, to the fields
To the humming gro[Dm]groves
Outro:
[Dm]
