[Intro]
Am
Am Am7 Am
Am Am7 Am
[Verse 1]
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
In the cold of the evening, they used to gather,
G Em F Am
Neath the stars in the meadow, circled near the old oak tree,
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
At the times appointed hmm by the seasons,
Em F Am Am7
Of the earth, and the phases of the moon.
[Verse 2]
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
In the center, often stood a woman,
G F Am
Equal with the others, respected for her worth,
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
One of the many we call the witches,
Em F Am
The healers, the teachers, of the wisdom of the earth.
[Verse 3]
Am G F Am
People grew in the knowledge she gave them,
Em F Am Asus2 Am
Herbs to heal their bodies, spells to make their spirits whole,
Am Am7 Am Am7
Hear them chanting healing incantations,
G F Am
Calling for the wise ones, celebrating in dance and song.
[Chorus]
Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Am7 Am
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Asus2 Am
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
[Verse 4]
