[Verse 1]
Dm
Upon the strange, I stumbled
    F           C
The eldritch, I encountered
Dm                                  F C
Speaking in whispers and harsh cries
Dm
I had known it inside of me
F     C       F
I had lost it everywhere
Dm
It shifted its shape and changed its size
Bb          C
Changed its size

[Pre-Chorus]
Bb             C
Nestled by the rocks
   F                 Gm
In blood and earthen red
     Bb        Am         Dm
I'll paint the secrets of yore

[Chorus]
Abm                      Ebm           E           Dbm Gbm Ebm
I'll roam and I'll seek, I'll come and I will find you

Abm                       Ebm    E     Dbm       Gbm Ebm
In the night of the mind, in the light of thе day
   E      Dbm                 Ebm              B  Bb Dm
"I am the trout and the deer, the wind and the empti-ness"

[Verse 2]
Dm
In the heart of the wild
F         C
Under the gyre of stars
Dm
Embraced by the tall, murky woods
      F     C
Tall, murky woods

[Pre-Chorus]
Bb             C
Nestled by the rocks
   F                 Gm
In blood and earthen red

I'll paint the secrets of yore

Dm Dm Am Bb Gm
C Am Bb Gm Gm A; Bb C

[Bridge]
Dm
Shrouded in mist, the sinking fens
      Bb         Gm
Where paths will dwindle in the dark
    Am         Bb            Gm
And signs will fade and disappear
               Am       B     C
My footprint's seen but for a while

[Chorus]
Abm                      Ebm           E           Dbm Gbm Ebm
I'll roam and I'll seek, I'll come and I will find you
   E      Dbm                 Ebm E            Gb
"I am the eagle and the bear, the wind and the emptinеss"
Abm                       Ebm    E     Dbm       Gbm Ebm
In the night of the mind, in the light of thе day
   E      Dbm                 Ebm          Eb        Abm
"I am the trout and the deer, the wind and the empti-ness"
