William Butler Yeats Visits Lincoln Park and Escapes Unscathed LYRICS
source:Phil Ochs   Time:2005-08-10
 




Am CG

As I went out one evening to take the evening air

I was blessed by a blood-red moon
F GCF


Dm GAm G

I spied a fair young maiden and a flame was in her eyes
In Lincoln Park the dark was turning

And on her face lay the steel blue skies



Of Lincoln Park, the dark was turning
Turning



They spread their sheets upon the ground just like a wandering tribe


And the wise men walked in their Robespierre robes
Through Lincoln Park the dark was turning

The towers trapped and trembling, and the boats were tossed about

When the fog rolled in and the gas rolled out
From Lincoln Park the dark was turning



Turning


Like wild horses freed at last we took the streets of wine


But I searched in vain for she stayed behind

In Lincoln Park the dark was turning
I'll go back to the city where I can be alone

And tell my friend she lies in stone

In Lincoln Park the dark was turning
