Verse 1
G
I heard her in the valley,
D
I heard her in the dead of night,
Em7
The warning of a white hare,
Cadd9
Her eyes burning bright.
G
Careful you don't catch her,
D
Or give her right of way,
Em7
For she will look upon you,
Cadd9 (fill)
And steal your soul away.
Chorus
D G Cadd9
For the white hare is calling,
D
She's dancing in the night,
G Cadd9
She'll be out 'till the morning,
D
With her eyes burning bright,
G Cadd9
The white hare is calling you.
All verses are the same as verse one, and all choruses are the same,
Verse 2
Out upon the heather,
A shadow came onto me,
Her hair was hanging over,
Her face I could not see.
She ran behind the rocks,
I heard the hounds cry,
The image of a woman,
Her head she held up high.
Chorus
Bridge
Cadd9
You can hear her calling,
Every night,
You can hear her call.
Verse 3
If you go hunting,
Or calling out your prey,
Well if you see a fair maid,
Her hair in ashen grey.
Oh careful you don't catch her,
Or give her right of way,
For she will look upon you,
And steal your soul away.
Chorus
Outro
Cadd9
Calling out your name,
I hear her coming on,
She's calling out your name.
