Gene Clark      White Light   written by Gene Clark  


E
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
