INTRO:
G C
F C
Oh, the neon lights were flashing and the icy wind did blow
F C Am E7
His eyes were red, his hopes were dead and the wine was running low
F G
And the old man came home
C
From the forest
F C
His tears fell on the sidewalk as he stumbled in the street
F C Am E7
For his castle was a hallway and the bottle was his friend
F G
And the old man stumbled in
C
From the forest
F C
Up a dark and dingy staircase the old man made his way
F C Am E7
And he wondered how it happened that he ended up this way
F G
Getting lost like a fool
C
In the forest
F C
And as he lay there sleeping a vision did appear
F C Am E7
Who had loved him in the springtime of a long forgotten year
F G
When the wildflowers did bloom
C
In the forest
F C
She touched his grizzled fingers and she called him by his name
F C Am E7
In an old house on a hillside, in some forgotten town
F G
Where the river runs down
