[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
