[Verse]
C# G# D# Fm
Today while it rained, I washed the jars
C# G# D# G#
Then I lit a flame, set the water to start
C# G# D# Fm
And at the end of the day, lined up to cool and seal
C# G# D# G#
Twelve pints of spiced peach jam, twenty jars of dill beans canned
C# G# D# Fm
From an old recipe that my mother gave to me
C# G# D# Fm
Because it's good to put a little bit by for when the late snows fly
C# G#
All that love so neatly canned
Cm Fm D#/G G#
By the work of our tending hands
[Instrumental]
C# G# D# Fm C# G# D# G#
[Verse]
C# G# D# Fm
laid hands on boards and bricks and loud machines
C# G# D# G#
With shovels and rakes, and buckets of soap, they clean
C# G# D# Fm
And I believe that we should bless every shirt ironed and pressed
C# G# D# G#
Salute the crews out on the road, those who stock shelves and carry loads
C# G# D# Fm
Whisper thanks to the brooms and saws, dirty boots and coveralls
C# G# D# Fm
And bow my head to the waitress and nurse, tip my hat to farmer and clerk
C# G#
All those saints with skillets and pans
Cm Fm D#/G G#
And the work of their hands, work of their hands
[Instrumental]

Laid out on the counter
Cb A#m7 C#
Pulled up out of hot water
G# Cb A#7
The work of our hands, so faithful and true
[Verse]
C# G# D# Fm
I make something barely there, music is little more than air
C# G# D# G#
So now every year, I'll put by tomatoes and pears
C# G# D# Fm
Boil the lids and wipe the lip with a callused fingertip
C# G# D# G#
And I swear by the winter ground, we'll open one and pass the thing around
C# G# D# Fm
Let the light catch the jar, amber gold as a falling star
C# G# D# Fm
Its humble and physical, it's only love made visible
C# G#
Yeah, now I understand
Cm Fm D#/G G#
