[Verse 1]

Em                DI sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and
C         H7         Emleaves of gold there grew
Em              DOf wind I sang, a wind there came
C      H7           Emand in the branches blew
G               DBeyond the Sun, beyond the Moon
Em              Dthe foam was on the Sea,
Em                   DAnd by the strand of Ilmarin
C            H7     EmThere grew a Golden Tree

[Verse 2]
Em                   DBeneath the stars of Ever-eve
C          DIn Eldamar it shone
Em         DIn Eldamar beside the walls
C  H7    Emof Elven Tirion

[Verse 3]
G                     DThere long the golden leaves have grown
Em                 Dupon the branching years
Em                    DWhile here beyond the Sundering Seas
C            H7    EmNow fall the Elven tears

[Verse 4]
G         DO Lorien! The Winter comes,
Em           C        Dthe bare and leafless Day.
Em                     DThe leaves are falling in the stream,
C         H7    EmThe river flows away
G         DO Lorien! Too long I have
Em                     Ddwelt upon this hither shore
Em                DAnd in the fading crown have twined
C          H7   Emthe golden Elanor

[Verse 5]
Em              DBut if of ships I now should sing,
C                      Dwhat ship would come to me,
Em                      DWhat ship would bear me ever back
C         H7     Emacross so wide a Sea?
