Morocco Chords & Lyrics - Judy Collins

[INTRO]
[C] [F] [C] [F]

[VERSE 1]
I [C]dreamed that I saw you once, [F]down in Morocco
Your [C]clothes were so old they were [F]new
You [C]spoke to the Bedouins [F]in their own language
Of [C]silver and crimson and [F]blue
They [Am]said that your singing had [C]altered their vision
And [F]yet nothing really had [G]changed
The [Dm]dust from the desert rose [F]up from your eyelids
You [C]said you had conquered the [G]chains

[VERSE 2]
The [C]white wind around us, as [F]we stood there talking
Was [C]blowing the stars from the [F]sky
I [C]said make the beauty you [F]made long ago
And the [C]dervishes whirled while you [F]cried
You said, "[Am]Hold me against you, the [C]weather is calling
My [F]mind is the colour of [G]stone"
And [Dm]I wrapped the [C]green silk a[F]round your thin body
And [C]knew you would never come [G]home

[CHORUS]
The [F]wind and the [G]sky and the [C]sun in your [Am]eyes
Was [F]driving you [C]mad, I could [G]see
And [Dm]in any [C]language, I [F]knew they were saying
The [C]future is cutting us [G]free

[VERSE 3]
We [C]walked in the desert, your [F]hands were like velvet
You [C]told me the reason you’d [F]stayed
And [C]all of the women whose [F]hearts had been broken
Stood [C]naked and cool in the [F]shade
The [Am]men in the village were [C]called to their worship
Their [F]colours had started to [G]fade
The [Dm]shelter of [C]heaven had [F]lifted forever
Their [C]eyes turned the colour of [G]jade

[CHORUS]
The [F]wind and the [G]sky and the [C]sun in your [Am]eyes
Was [F]driving you [C]mad, I could [G]see
And [Dm]in any [C]language, I [F]knew they were saying
The [C]future was cutting us [G]free

[VERSE 4]
I [C]left to fly back to the [F]place I was sleeping
Where [C]all of my dreams had been [F]lost
[C]I wrote your name down on the [F]back of a postcard
And [C]finally I counted the [F]cost
The [Am]demons and devils, the [C]saints and the angels
Had [F]gathered to show me the [G]view
And [Dm]all of the [C]tears that had [F]come when I met you
Were [C]shining and bright like the [G]dew

[CHORUS]
The [F]wind and the [G]moon and the [C]sun in my [Am]eyes
Was [F]driving me [C]mad, I could [G]see
And [Dm]in any [C]language, I [F]knew they were saying
The [C]future was cutting us [G]free
