Intro
Fm A# G# D#
G# D# Fm A#
Aunt Mattie bent a thousand times, down the long black rows
D# G# D# Fm G# A#
Then battled with the angry weeds, so little seeds could grow
Gm G# D# G#
Come summer, Mattie pulled the snow from cruel and cutting bolls
D# G# Fm A#
She was patient pale and slender and was only eight years old
D# G# D# Fm A#
Round 'n round the spinning wheel, beneath Aunt Mattie's boot
D# G# D# Fm G# A#
She recalled the soil and cotton seeds and summer's hopeful shoots
Gm G# D# G#
Two winters spun out summer's threads, in rich and creamy folds
D# G# Fm A# D#
And she had a bolt of cotton cloth when she turned ten years old
CHORUS:
G# A# D# Cm
If we bend and plant the seeds and tame the wicked weeds
G# A# D# Cm
If we let the sun and rain assist and simplify our needs
G# A# Cm F7
If we follow in the barefoot path of one persistent girl
G# A# G# D#6 D#
We'll throw a healing quilt across an ever ailing world
G# D# Fm A#
Indigo and lavender made up Aunt Mattie's sky
D# G# D# Fm G# A#
Remembering her childhood days, she made the rustic dye
Gm G# D# G#
In the hour before the day would end, it fed young Mattie's dream
D# G# D# Fm A# D#
She made indigo and lavender when she turned just fourteen
CHORUS:
G# A# D# Cm
If we bend and plant the seeds and tame the wicked weeds
G# A# D# Cm
If we let the sun and rain assist and simplify our needs
G# A# Cm F7
If we follow in the barefoot path of one persistent girl
G# A# G# D#6 D#
We'll throw a healing quilt across an ever ailing world
INSTRUMENTAL; (same as Verse)
D# G# D# Fm A#
Aunt Mattie bends a thousand times, down each patchwork row
D# G# D# Fm G# A#
And piece by piece and stitch by stitch, in fading candle glow
Gm G# D# G#
The valley of the shadow cannot call her from her seams
D# G# D# Fm A# D#
Until finishing her lifetime's work, she dies at seventeen
CHORUS:
G# A# D# Cm
Oh, and if we bend and plant the seeds and tame the wicked weeds
G# A# D# Cm
If we let the sun and rain assist and simplify our needs
G# A# Cm F7
If we follow in the barefoot path of one persistent girl
G# A# G# D#6 D#
We'll throw a healing quilt across an ever ailing world
