The Minstrel of the Dawn is here, to make you laugh and bend your ear___
1 4 5Up the steps you'll hear him climb, all full of thoughts, all full of rhymes___
Listen to the pictures flow, a-cross the room in-to your mind they go___
1 4 6m 2 5Listen to the strings___, they jangle and dangle while the old guitar rings___

A Minstrel of the Dawn is he, not too wise, but oh so free___
1 4 5He'll talk of life out on the street, he'll play it sad, he'll say it sweet___
Look into his shining face, of lonliness you'll always find a trace___
1 4 6m 2 5Just like me and you___, he's trying to get into things more happy than blue___
INTERLUDE (4/4 time): 2m 2m 5 5, 2m 2m 5 5
1 4 5
A minstrel of the changing tide, he'll ask for nothing but his pride
Just sit him down up-on that chair, fetch some wine and set it there
4 7b 4 7b 5.. Listen to the pictures flow, and follow the fingers where they go
1 4 6m 2 5Listen to the strings___, they jangle and dangle while the old guitar rings
A Minstrel of the Dawn is near, just like a "step and fetchet" here
He's like an old time troubadour, wanting life and nothing more
Look into his shining eyes, and if you see a ghost don't be surprised
(Just) like me and you, he's trying to get into things more happy than blue
The minstrel boy will understand, he holds the promise in his hand
He talks of better days ahead, and by his words your fortune's read
Listen to the pictures flow, across the room into your mind they go
Listen to the strings, they jangle and dangle while the old guitar rings
