[C] One day, in the [G] year of the fox
Came a [Dm] time remembered [Am] well
When the [F] strong young man of the [G] rising sun
Heard the [Am] tolling of the great black bell
[C] One day in the [G] year of the fox
When the [E] bell began to [Am] ring
It meant the [F] time had come for [G] one to go
To the [Am] temple of the king
[Dm] There in the middle of the circle he stands [Am] searching, seeking
With [G] just one touch of his trembling hand the [Am] answer will be found
[Dm] Daylight waits while the old man sings [Am] heaven help me
Just [G] like the rush of a [Dm] thousand wings
It [E] shines upon the one and the [F] day has [G] just be- [Am] gun
[C] One day, in the [G] year of the fox
Came a [Dm] time remembered [Am] well
When the [F] strong young man of the [G] rising sun
Heard the [Am] tolling of the great black bell
[C] One day in the [G] year of the fox
When the [E] bell began to [Am] ring
It meant the [F] time had come for [G] one to go
To the [Am] temple of the king
[Dm] There in the middle of the people he stands [Am] seeing, feeling
With [G] just a wave of the strong right hand
He’s [E] gone to the[F] temple [G] of the [Am] king
[Dm] Far from the circle, at the edge of the world he’s [Am] hoping, wondering
[G] Thinking back on the stories he’s heard of what he’s [Am] going to see
[Dm] There, in the middle of a circle it lies [Am] heaven help me
Then [G] all could see by the [Dm] shine in his eyes the [E] answer had been found
[Dm] Back with the people in the circle he stands [Am] [Am] giving, feeling
With [G] just one touch of a [Dm] strong right hand
They [E] know Of the [F] temple [G] and the [Am] king
