  			VERSE:  (Bm) They came from the hills 
And they came from the valleys and the plains 
They struggled in the cold 
In the heat and the snow and in the rain 
Came to (A) hear him play (Bm) (A/C#bass) (D) (A/C#bass) 
(Bm) Play their (A) minds away (Bm) (A/C#bass) (D) (E) 
 
Chorus:  (A) We're all following a (D) strange (A) melody 
We're all summoned by a (D) tune (E) 
(F#m) We're following the (Bm) piper (F#m) 
And we (D) dance (E) beneath the (A) moon (E) 
A  D  A  D  E 
We're following the piper 
And we dance beneath the moon for him 
And we dance beneath the moon
