[Verse]
G D A Bm A G
He leaned in and whispered, "Turn the page"
D A Bm A G
He said, "Make yourself in-to a flame"
D A Bm A G
E crazy old lion with his hair all backlit
D A Bm A G D A
Grinning like a little boy who has a secret
[Chorus]
D G
And I do not know its name
A Bm
Though it's ever entwining
D A Bm A G D A
But I believe it must look like an old man shining
[Verse]
G D A Bm
We were eating summer peaches by a roadside stand
A G D A Bm A
Juice running down like laughter, on our chin and on our hands
G D A Bm A G
When we were done we looked around and smiled at each other
D A Bm A G D A
And you said, “Come on Carrie, let's have another"
[Chorus]
D G
And I do not know its name
A Bm
No matter how I try
D A Bm A G D A
But I think it must taste like peaches eaten by the roadside
[Verse]
G D A Bm A G
He drove a rental car shuttle to the airport on Sundays
D A Bm A G
We chatted that grey morning about the choir he sang with Wednesdays
D A Bm A
He sang a haunting gospel hymn, shameless and clearly
G D A Bm A G D A
With only me, a wandering stranger, sitting there to hear
[Chorus]
D G
And I do not know its name
A Bm
Elusive and subtle
D A Bm A G D A
But I believe it must sound like that man, singing in the shuttle
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
G D A Bm A G
Standing in the river, barefoot in the current
D A Bm A G
I hear the sound of a birdcall and I try to learn it
D A Bm A
The water is a wonder, it's cold and fast and deep
G D A Bm A G D A
I saw fish go swimming out, too far for me to reach
[Chorus]
D G
And I do not know its name
A Bm
Swimmer or watcher
D A Bm A G D A
But I believe there is always something moving beneath the water
[Chorus]
D G
If holy is a sphere
A Bm
That cannot be rendered
D A Bm A G D A
There is no middle place, because all of it is centre
[Outro]
D G A
I do not know its name
D G A
I do not know its name
D G A G
I do not know its name
