Gene Clark White Light Lyrics

White Light Lyrics

Oh, the village of the hill 
A 
Sitting silently at will 
F#m A E 
Like some prophecy forgotten by an age 
E 
With no guns before its gate 
A 
The mysterious estate 
F#m A E 
Lies waiting for its history`s dawning page 
A A/G# F#m E 
With the raging of the sea before its height 
A A/G# F#m E E A F#m A E 
And the strength of those whom see beyond their sight 
E 
Oh, the smithies anvil rings 
A 
And the symphony it sings 
F#m A E 
No voice nor poet`s pen can put to tune 
E 
And electric lines of force 
A 
Ring around the humble lives 
F#m A E 
Of the souls that hear the master saying soon 
A A/G# F#m E 
With the clouds that gather near disturb the night 
A A/G# F#m E E E A F#m A E 
Striking flashes of a difference, fleeing fright 
E 
No slight of tongue nor hand 
A 
Can so boldly there withstand 
A F#m A E 
When the spirit of it`s truth shall speak the time 
E 
And no ignorance of life 
A 
Can be held within the sight 
F#m A E 
Of the buttresses of ageless binds of time 
A A/G# F#m E 
The communion of the forces take delight 
A A#G F#m E E E A F#m A E 
With the fear that no tongues may read nor write 
E 
White Light 
E 
Oh the village of the hill 
A 
Sitting silently still 
F#m A E 
With the strength of ages past they`re still at hand 
E 
Reckons not to look behind 
A 
But to look within and find 
F#m A E 
And to hear of those enlightened by the lamb 
A A/G# F#m E 
With the powers of the wind both fierce and light 
A A/G# F#m E 
And the waters of the storm went through the night
