THE ELF
As recorded by Al Stewart
(1966 single release)

Capo 4th fret



[Intro]
D  G  D


[Verse 1]
D
I sat upon the evening hill
D
The shadows set, the night grew still
D
And as I sat, guitar on knee
D
A voice of flowers called to me


[Chorus]
D
Sing, sing to me your song
G             D           A
Sing, for I belong to the night
       G            A              D  G D
In the gray morning light, I'll be gone


[Verse 2]
D
I turned with eyes that strained for sight
D
And there amid the failing light
D
Dimly saw a figure small
D
Heard a voice of magic call


[Chorus]
D
Sing, sing to me your song
G             D           A
Sing, for I belong to the night
       G            A              D  G D
In the gray morning light, I'll be gone


[Verse 3]
D
My fumbling fingers found the chords
D
My trembling lips fought for the words
D
I stopped to ask the stranger how
D
He softly said, "No questions now"


[Chorus]
D
Sing, sing to me your song
G             D           A
Sing, for I belong to the night
       G            A              D  G D
In the gray morning light, I'll be gone


[Verse 4]
D
Then with the magic of the elves
D
My fingers danced among themselves
D
A heart with lightness thus endowed
D
Formed melodies I know not how


[Chorus]
D
Song played the whole night long
G                  D                   A
Thus he danced and laughed through the night
         G            A             D
And with gray morning light, he was gone


[Verse 5]
D
Now, the whispering wind plays over the hill
D
And the evening sounds again grow still
                                Em
A year or more has passed since then
A      D             G       A
Oh, he will not pass my way again


[Out-Chorus]
      D     G              D
So, I sing, sing to you my song
G            D           A
Sing for I belong to the night
       G            A              D   G
In the gray morning light, I'll be gone
      D     G              D
So, I sing, sing to you my song
G            D           A
Sing for I belong to the night
       G            A              D   G
In the gray morning light, I'll be gone
      D     G              D
So, I sing, sing to you my song
G            D           A
Sing for I belong to the night
       G            A
In the gray morning light
