 The minstrel- Trinity   

      G              D
Kind Sirs, Lovely ladies
      Em
This tale you'll enjoy
         G                D
of the way love once started
    Cadd9           D  3/8
between maid and boy.
      Em           Bm7
It began on an evening 
        C   D       Em
where feasting was done.
           C            D
Here our lover's encountered
                    Em
and this tale has begun.

verse 2
        G          D               Em
As the lad looked around him with wandering eyes
      G            D        Cadd9           D   3/8
he beheld there a lady her look like the skies
        Em             Bm7            C     D      Em
As the sun seemed to bless her with flames in her gaze
             C         D                          Em
't was this wonderful vision that filled him with praise.

verse 3
     G                D           Em
His mouth longed to speak of the fire in his soul
         G          D        Cadd9     D
to this beautiful maiden of virtues untold.
      Em             Bm7        C   D        Em
But before he could utter the words on his mind
         C         D                        Em
she had gone away, vanished and left him behind.

verse 4
       G              D            Em
As he caught himself staring, his eyes open wide,
        G           G               Cadd9         D     3/8
gazing down at the place where she fled from his sight 
    Em         Bm7/E      C/E           Em
He decided to seek her a quest for his love.
      C/E           D                      Em
So he gathered his valour and soon he set off

verse 5
       Em         Em/F#        Em/G        Em/A Em/B
For a day and a full night he rode and he sought
       Em       Em/F#           Em/G          Em/A
asking all he encountered where his love was brought.
        Em              Em/F#         Em/F      Em/A Em/B
By the trail that they showed him he wandered along,
            Em        Em/F#        Em/G          Em/A
't was her image that led him and kept his love strong.

verse 6
      G              D         Em
Kind Sirs, lovely Ladies, our tale is at end
           G                D         Cadd9          D
Did they spend their lived loving, or is their love spent?
         Em           Bm7         C    D      Em
Love is found by the seeker and wants to be sought.
        C                D               Em
May the Lord guard your pathways as you seek what he's stored.
