Intro
D#m G# F# C#
F# C# D#m G#
Aunt Mattie bent a thousand times, down the long black rows
C# F# C# D#m F# G#
Then battled with the angry weeds, so little seeds could grow
Fm F# C# F#
Come summer, Mattie pulled the snow from cruel and cutting bolls
C# F# D#m G#
She was patient pale and slender and was only eight years old
C# F# C# D#m G#
Round 'n round the spinning wheel, beneath Aunt Mattie's boot
C# F# C# D#m F# G#
She recalled the soil and cotton seeds and summer's hopeful shoots
Fm F# C# F#
Two winters spun out summer's threads, in rich and creamy folds
C# F# D#m G# C#
And she had a bolt of cotton cloth when she turned ten years old
CHORUS:
F# G# C# A#m
If we bend and plant the seeds and tame the wicked weeds
F# G# C# A#m
If we let the sun and rain assist and simplify our needs
F# G# A#m D#7
If we follow in the barefoot path of one persistent girl
F# G# F# C#6 C#
We'll throw a healing quilt across an ever ailing world
F# C# D#m G#
Indigo and lavender made up Aunt Mattie's sky
C# F# C# D#m F# G#
Remembering her childhood days, she made the rustic dye
Fm F# C# F#
In the hour before the day would end, it fed young Mattie's dream
C# F# C# D#m G# C#
She made indigo and lavender when she turned just fourteen
CHORUS:
F# G# C# A#m
If we bend and plant the seeds and tame the wicked weeds
F# G# C# A#m
If we let the sun and rain assist and simplify our needs
F# G# A#m D#7
If we follow in the barefoot path of one persistent girl
F# G# F# C#6 C#
We'll throw a healing quilt across an ever ailing world
INSTRUMENTAL; (same as Verse)
C# F# C# D#m G#
Aunt Mattie bends a thousand times, down each patchwork row
C# F# C# D#m F# G#
And piece by piece and stitch by stitch, in fading candle glow
Fm F# C# F#
The valley of the shadow cannot call her from her seams
C# F# C# D#m G# C#
Until finishing her lifetime's work, she dies at seventeen
CHORUS:
F# G# C# A#m
Oh, and if we bend and plant the seeds and tame the wicked weeds
F# G# C# A#m
If we let the sun and rain assist and simplify our needs
F# G# A#m D#7
If we follow in the barefoot path of one persistent girl
F# G# F# C#6 C#
We'll throw a healing quilt across an ever ailing world
