  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.
