The Wedding Feast

D   Bm  A  G

[Verse 1]
D      G        A    D
So the wedding feast begins
D       G         A           Bm
Jesters dance and maidens sing
         Bm/Bb    Bm/A        Bm/Ab
Pork and vension, chicken and beef,
G           A
As befits a wedding feast


[Verse 2]
D      G      A         D
For a Loxley, duty calls
        G           A        Bm
But for Robin these castle walls
       Bm/Bb       Bm/A  Bm/Ab
Were a prison, and not a home
    G                 A      D
His greatest wish was to be gone


[Chorus]
              G          D           A           D
For there are hopes and dreams in a young man's heart
    G               A
To take him to the sky
       D     D/C#      Bm     Bm/A
But if he is tied down to the ground
     G                A      D
His dreams will never fly


[Bridge]
F               Bb        F     Bb         F       C
Then his father bids him speak, upon this wedding day
    Gm                Eb            F                G
But too much wine, in veno veritas, truth is on the way
C              F           G                C
Father I have always been, at you back and call
       Am                G              F             G
But I don't need you to tell me what I can and cannot do
   Bb                  Eb   Bb  Eb     Bb   F
So with King Richard I will go, to the Holy Land
Cm                Ab                 Bb             C
Guy of Gisbourne, will you join me? Swear it on my hand!

[Verse 3]
D      G       A           D
As for Marian, waiting in dread
          G      A       Bm
Trembling at the wedding bed
      Bm/Bb   Bm/A      Bm/Ab
Robin tells her from the door
G               A
"Do not fear, I will not stay
G               A                  D
I'll be gone, before the break of day"


[Chorus]
              G          D          A            D
For there are hopes and dreams in a young man's heart
    G               A
To take him to the sky
        D    D/C#       Bm      Bm/A
But if he is tied down, to the ground
    G                 A       D
His dreams will never fly
