111 - The Olive Tree
Verse 1
Tell me white dove, (short notes)where will I find– the ol-ive tree
^ ^ For-just-one branch I’d search my whole life through
^ I’ve heard– them say a green-er land– is wait-ing there,
^ ^ Where-peo-ple wake and find their dreams– come true.
Verse 2
^ High fly-ing dove– please lead me and I’ll fol-low you
^ ^ A-bove-the clouds, be-yond the storm-y sea
^ I long– to share a world– of sweet con-tent-ment there
^ In that– bright land where grows the ol–ive tree.
Verse 3
^ So let me fly–, please lead me and I’ll fol-low you
^ ^ A-bove-the clouds, be-yond the storm-y sea
^ I long– to share a world– of sweet con-tent-ment there
^ In that– bright land where grows the ol–ive tree.
