    Princess & The Raven
    Gillian Welch & David Rawlings
    Capo 6
    Spoken  Am Bm C
    Once there was
    A broken hearted princess
    Who stood on a bridge
    Over an ice cold river
    And asked these questions
    To the night…

    Am Where is the G bed
    Where D/F# sorrow F may sleep
    Ever Am toss, ever Bm turn
    Through the Am night? E
    And Am what never G moves
    Through the D/F# days and the F years
    But is Am gone in the Bm end
    Out of Am sight? E

    Am What's the C reward
    D/F# That cannot be F bought
    Not for Am silver
    Or for E gold
    Any Am price…? Bm C?

    Spoken  Am
    High in the branches of a nearby oak
    The Raven heard the princess
    And flew down and then he spoke…

    The Am river is G the bed
    D/F# Where sorrow may F sleep
    Ever Am toss, ever Bm turn
    Through the Am night E
    And the Am road never G moves
    D/F# Through the days and the F years
    But is Am gone in the Bm end
    Out of Am sight E
    Am Sleep’s the C reward
    That D/F# cannot be F bought
    Not for Am silver or for E gold
    Any Am price… Bm Am
