[Verse 1]
Fb G#m
Like faithful oxen through the chalk,
Cb G#m
With dragging tails of history walk.
Fb G#m Cb Cb
Soon confuse the compass and the cross.
Fb G#m Cb Cb Fb Fb Cb F#
Carefully and cursively we fill our traveling diaries with loss.
[Verse 2]
Fb G#m
Beneath an angry Bible flood,
Cb G#m
Did you and I first learn to love.
Fb G#m Cb Cb
In my father's car we came to know.
Fb G#m Cb Cb Fb Fb Cb F#
And shivered in our painted clothes and paired like every animal below.
[Chorus]
G#m
As heavy as a history book can be,
Cb Fb Cb D#m
I will carry it with me, oh Lord.
G#m
And maybe when the bitterness has gone,
Cb Fb Cb D#m
There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more.
[Verse 3]
Fb G#m
Barefoot in a rowing boat
Cb G#m
You loose your shoes and freeze your toes
Fb G#m Cb Cb
And say I wear my sorrow like a crown
Fb G#m Cb Cb
And throw your arms around my head, and see it there in gold and brown and
Fb Fb Cb F#
red
[Chorus]
G#m
As heavy as a history book can be,
Cb Fb Cb D#m
I will carry it with me, oh Lord.
G#m
And maybe when the bitterness has gone,
Cb Fb Cb D#m
There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more.
[Bridge]
A Fb Cb
We'll soon forget our parents' names,
A Fb Cb
Like dogs will drive the wolves away.
A Fb
And weep with fingertips opposed,
Cb A Cb A
Like a church where nobody congregates.
[Middle 8/Outro Verse]
C#m Fb Cb A
But sweetness sings in the pasture,
C#m Fb Cb A
We throw ourselves on the mercy of the earth.
C#m Fb Cb A
If sand and salt have the answer,
C#m Fb Cb A
Then the act itself will be louder than the word.
C#m Fb Cb A
And I'll be on your side, and I'll be on your side.
C#m Fb Cb A
C#m Fb Cb A
And I'll be on your side, and I'll be on your side.
C#m Fb Cb Ab
