Golden Loom Lyrics & Tabs by Roger McGuinn
Golden Loom
guitar chords lyrics
Smoky autumn night,
Stars up in the sky,
I see the sailin' boats
Across the bay go by.
Eucalyptus trees hang above the street
And then I turn my head,
For you're approachin' me.
Moonlight on the water,
Fisherman's daughter,
Floatin' in to my room
With a golden loom.
First we wash our feet
Near the immortal shrine
And then our shadows meet
And then we drink the wine.
Near the immortal shrine
And then our shadows meet
And then we drink the wine.
I see the hungry clouds up above your face
And then the tears roll down,
What a bitter taste.
And then you drift away
On a summer's day where
The wildflowers bloom
With your golden loom.
I walk across the bridge
In the dismal light
Where all the cars are stripped
Between the gates of night.
I see the trembling lion
With the lotus flower tail
And then I kiss your lips
As I lift your veil.
But you're gone and then
All I seem to recall
Is the smell of perfume
And your golden loom.
