    The stressed notes are marked with a > sign, and the mute notes
  • with an x.

    and ...
  • Lyrics :
     
    Down among the reeds and rushes
  • A baby boy was found
    His eyes as clear as centuries
    His silky hair was brown
  •  
    Never been lonely
    Never been lied to
  • Never had to scuffle in fear
    Nothing denied to
    Born at the instant
  • The church bells chime
    And the whole world whispering
    Born at the right time
  •  
    Me and my buddies we are travelling people
    We like to go down to restaurant row
  • Spend those Euro-dollars
    All the way from Washington to Tokyo
    I see them in the airport lounge
  • Upon their mother's breast
    They follow me with open eyes
    Their uninvited guest
  •  
    Never been lonely
    Never been lied to
  • Never had to scuffle in fear
    Nothing denied to
    Born at the instant
  • The church bells chime
    And the whole world whispering
    Born at the right time
  •  
    Too many people on the bus from the airport
    Too many holes in the crust of the earth
  • The planet groans
    Every time it registers another birth
     
  • But among the reeds and rushes
    A baby girl was found
    Her eyes as clear as centuries
  • Her silky hair was brown
     
    Never been lonely
  • Never been lied to
    Never had to scuffle in fear
    Nothing denied to
  • Born at the instant
    The church bells chime
    And the whole world whispering
  • Born at the right time
  • PLAY TOO ..
