This song comes from both recordings (live and solo) of Troubadour from the DVD "Justin
Live in San Juan Capistrano". In order to play this song correctly, the tabs must be
exactly as diagrammed at the bottom of this page. If not, you'll have a very hard time
transitioning. Overall, this song is easy; you'll just need to focus on the timing.
I'm sure this is 100% correct, but if you have any questions, revisions, or comments,

Verse 1:
[G]I was [D]only a little boy when I [G]heard the [C]call,
like a [D]voice in the wilderness [C]calls to us [G]all.
So I [D]took to the gypsy life in the [G]city of [C]love,
and I [D]walked with the Troubadours, and [C]flew with the [G/Gadd9/G/Gadd9/G/]doves...
...in the[C] city of [D]love.

Verse 2:
[G]In the [D]garden of paradise I [G]heard a voice [C]sing,
I could [D]still feel the thrill of it; the [C]chills it would [G]bring.
Far [D]away in the western sky [G]over the [C]sea,
[D] [C] [G][/]
[/]th[G]er[/]e'[Gadd9]s a la[/]nd[G] t[/]hat I dream about; peaceful and free...

Chorus:
(The correct tabs for the walkdown are shown below, but it sounds just as good just to
down the low E string from the 12th fret and play on beat with the music.)

[C]Hold my [G]hand, [C]let me [G]take you there,
[C]let's go [G]walking in the [D]morning.
[C]As time goes [G]by, [C]love will [G]wash us clean,
[C]let love [G]bring to us our [D]freedom.
And we will [G]sing of the [D]heroes, that [A]fly on the [D]breeze.
[G]Love with the [D]lovers of the world.
A A7 D (Inro x1)
Oh... Oh... Oh....... We'll be free......
Verse 3:
[G]In the [D]dark of the mystic night [G]music is [C]born,
in the [D]hands of the Troubadour, the [C]piper of [G]dawn.
And it's [D]heard on a foreign shore [G]over the [C]sea,
in a [D]land that we dream about;[C] peaceful and[G] f[/]re[Gadd9]e...[/G][/][Gadd9][/][G][/]

I think that's about it. This is a great acoustic song, and not too hard either. All I
to say is that Justin Hayward is a genius...
Time waits
no one at all, no, not even you...
