 Subject: CRD: 'Wizard of the Worldly Game' by Fairport Convention
 Wizard Of The Worldly Game
 (Swarbrick/Nicol)
 FAIRPORT CONVENTION
 From Angel Delight, 1971
 
 Intro:
 Dm F Am G
 
 Verse 1:
     G     C          E           Am
 For seven years I've stood right here
         Dm           F        G
 And the flowers grow green by day
 G           C          E     Am        
 All for the yarns that I was told
   Dm        Bb        Dm        Am
 I spread my arms when they grew cold
     Dm     F       C
 And warded off the rain
 
 Chorus:
     C                    G
 The bigger the tree, the deeper the root
     F                     C
 The grass that is trodden underfoot
         Am
 Give it time
           Dm     F     C
 And it'll surely rise again
 
 Dm F Am G
 
 Verse 2:
 I'm rocked by winds and I'm soaked by rains
 And I'll bow and sometimes bend
 Until I fall and crush the forms
 Of a few small friends who stood through storms
 And who will rise again
 
 (chorus)
 
 (guitar solo over verse and chorus chords)
 
 Verse 3:
 It's laughter? dust, the Derby's just
 Redo? it or be done
 Wild? to wind and wise to pain
 Wizard of the worldly game
 Treasoned into trust
 
 (chorus)
 
 (guitar solo over verse and chorus chords to fade)
 
 
 If anyone knows the real lyrics, especially the third verse, 
 I would greatly appreciate someone sending them to me.
