And who by fire, who by water a G a a G a
Who in the sunshine, who in the night time C G C C G C
Who by high ordeal, who by common trial a G a a G a
Who in your merry, merry month of may C G C
Who by various slow decay C G C
And who shall I say is calling? a F E

And who in lonely slip, who by barbiturate
Who in these realms of love
Who by something blunt
And who by avalanche, who by powder
Who for his greed, who for his hunger
And who shall I say is calling?

And who by brave assent, who by accident
Who in solitude, who in this mirror
Who by his lady's command, who by his own hand
Who in mortal chains, who in power
And who shall I say is calling?
