[Intro]
Am  F  C  G

[Verse 1]

Am
Hail to the Goddess,
Am
She who is named Kybele,
F
You who roam the ancient mountains,
C                 G
I have come to call your name.

Am
Something in me turns toward you,
F
As though it always knew the way.
C
Before my lips had learned your name,
G
My heart was reaching all the same.

[Verse 2]

Am
Motherly One, stand here beside me,
F
Not to bind, but let me be.
C
Nothing asked and nothing proven,
G
Still your love makes room for me.

Am
When the world becomes unwelcome,
F
I can feel you at my back.
C
There are depths the cold can't enter,
E7
There are places I can rest.

[Pre-Chorus]

Dm
And the deeper that I wander,
F
The less I need to hide.
Am
Something ancient moves beneath me,
E7
Something living wakes inside.

[Chorus]

C
Kybele, Kybele, Kybele,
G
Mother of the mountain, hear me.
Am
Let your boundless love surround me,
F
Not a chain, but something free.

C
Kybele, Kybele, Kybele,
G
Let your wildness move through me.
Dm
With your lions walking proudly,
E7                         Am
Teach my heart to walk as freely.

[Verse 3]

Am
O Ecstatic, O Inspiring,
F
There is fire within your call.
C
Not a flame that asks surrender,
G
But the courage to stand tall.

Am
Quiet-footed walk your felines,
F
Neither pleading nor afraid.
C
There is something in their stillness,
E7
Strength that need not be displayed.

[Bridge]

Dm
Your love knows no narrow border,
Am
No condition, debt, or claim.
F
Deep as caverns through the mountain,
E7
Older still than any name.

Dm
And within those endless chambers,
Am
Even darkness can be warm.
F
I need not become another
E7
To be sheltered from the storm.

[Final Chorus]

C
Kybele, Kybele, Kybele,
G
Mother of the mountain, hear me.
Am
Let your boundless love surround me,
F
Let me stand before you free.

C
Kybele, Kybele, Kybele,
G
Let your living fire move through me.
Dm
May your lions walk beside me,
E7
Proud and fearless, wild and free.

F
Through the mountain, through my spirit,
Dm
Through the depths that have no end.
Am
Kybele, I call upon you,
E7                         Am
And I know that you are near.

[Outro]

F
Kybele...

Dm
Kybele...

E7
Kybele...

Am
Hear me.
