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