 Kind Sirs,  Lovely ladies
 This tale  you'll enjoy
 of the way  love once started
   3/8
 between maid and boy.
 It began  on an evening
 where feasting  was done.
 Here our lover's  encountered
 and this tale has begun.
 As the lad  looked around  him with wandering  eyes
   3/8
 he beheld there a lady her look like the skies
 As the sun  seemed to bless  her with flames  in  her gaze
 't was this wonderful  vision  that filled him with praise.
 His mouth  longed to speak  of the fire  in his soul
 to this beautiful  maiden  of virtues  untold.
 But before  he could utter  the words on  his mind
 she had gone  away, vanished  and left him behind.
 As he caught  himself staring,  his eyes  open wide,
   3/8
 gazing down at the place where she fled from his sight
 He decided  to seek her  a quest  for his love.
 So he gathered  his valour  and soon he set off
 For a day  and a full  night he rode  and he sought
 asking all  he encountered  where his  love was brought.
 By the trail  that they showed  him he wandered  along,
 't was her image  that led  him and kept  his love strong.
 Kind Sirs,  lovely Ladies,  our tale  is at end
 Did they spend  their lived loving,  or is  their love spent?
 Love is found  by the seeker  and wants  to  be sought.
 May the Lord  guard your pathways  as you seek  what he's stored.

Kind S[G]irs, Lovely lad[D]ies
This t[Em]ale you'll enjoy
of the wa[G]y love once start[D]ed
    [Cadd9]           [D]  3/8
between maid and boy.
It beg[Em]an on an even[Bm7]ing
where fe[C]asti[D]ng was d[Em]one.
Here our lo[C]ver's encount[D]ered
and this tale has be[Em]gun.

[Em] [G] [Am] [C] [Em] [D/F#] [D/F#] [Am]

As the l[G]ad looked a[D]round him with w[Em]andering eyes
      [G]            [D]        [Cadd9]           [D]   3/8
he beheld there a lady her look like the skies
As the s[Em]un seemed to bl[Bm7]ess her with fl[C]ames i[D]n her g[Em]aze
't was this w[C]onderful v[D]ision that filled him with [Em]praise.

His m[G]outh longed to sp[D]eak of the f[Em]ire in his soul
to this b[G]eautiful ma[D]iden of v[Cadd9]irtues unt[D]old.
But be[Em]fore he could u[Bm7]tter the wo[C]rds [D]on his mi[Em]nd
she had g[C]one away, [D]vanished and left him beh[Em]ind.

As he c[G]aught himself s[D]taring, his e[Em]yes open wide,
        [G]           [G]               [Cadd9]         [D]     3/8
gazing down at the place where she fled from his sight
He d[Em]ecided to s[Bm7]eek [E]her a q[C/E]uest for his l[Em]ove.
So he [C/E]gathered his v[D]alour and soon he set o[Em]ff

[Em] [B7] [F#] [G] [Am]
[G/B] [C] [D] [D]
[Em] [B7] [F#] [G] [Am]
[G/B] [C] [D] [D]
[Em] [Em]

For a d[Em]ay and a fu[Em/F#]ll night he r[Em/G]ode and he s[Em/A]ought[Em/B]
asking [Em]all he en[Em/F#]countered where [Em/G]his love was b[Em/A]rought.
By the t[Em]rail that they s[Em/F#]howed him he w[Em]and[F]ered al[Em/A]ong, [Em/B]
't was her i[Em]mage that [Em/F#]led him and k[Em/G]ept his love s[Em/A]trong.

Kind S[G]irs, lovely Lad[D]ies, our t[Em]ale is at end
Did they sp[G]end their lived l[D]oving, or [Cadd9]is their love s[D]pent?
Love is f[Em]ound by the s[Bm7]eeker and wa[C]nts t[D]o be so[Em]ught.
May the [C]Lord guard your p[D]athways as you s[Em]eek what he's stored.
