Guinevere (Donovan)
D Gm C Bb D
Guinevere of the royal court of Arthur
Draped in white velvet, silk and lace.
The rustle of her gown on the marble staircase,
Sparkles on fingers, slender and pale.
D Dm Dm7 Gm
The jester he sleeps but the raven he peeps
D Gm C Bb D
Through the dark foreboding skies of the royal domain.
D Gm C Bb D
Maroon-coloured wine from the vineyards of Charlemagne
Is sipped by the queen's lips and so gently
Indigo eyes in the flickering candlelight,
Such is the silence o'er royal Camelot.
