The Shield
(Blackmore/Evans/Lord)
From "The Book Of Taliesyn", 1968

F# F#m

Mama plays a queen on the hill built on a dream

F# E/F# F#

While the children play in the field



F# F#m

Papa smokes the pipe of a sweet and better life



F# E/F# F#

But how strong is the shield?



F# F#m

Can peace be found on the carpet above ground



F# E/F# F#

Where sky is forever blue




F# E A D

So let it pass baby now, the slow and riding cloud



G F#

Which may take me from you
