Intro
A# Dm F F - A# A# F C
(on the third A# you can slide up to C and then back to Ebmaj7)
[Verse 1]
A# Dm
Like faithful oxen through the chalk,
F Dm
With dragging tails of history walk.
A# Dm F F
Soon confuse the compass and the cross.
A# Dm F F A# A# F C
Carefully and cursively we fill our traveling diaries with loss.
[Verse 2]
A# Dm
Beneath an angry Bible flood,
F Dm
Did you and I first learn to love.
A# Dm F F
In my father's car we came to know.
A# Dm F F A# A# F C
And shivered in our painted clothes and paired like every animal below.
[Chorus]
Dm
As heavy as a history book can be,
F A# F Am
I will carry it with me, oh Lord.
Dm
And maybe when the bitterness has gone,
F A# F Am
There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more.
[Verse 3]
A# Dm
Barefoot in a rowing boat
F Dm
You loose your shoes and freeze your toes
A# Dm F F
And say I wear my sorrow like a crown
A# Dm F F
And throw your arms around my head, and see it there in gold and brown and
A# A# F C
red
[Chorus]
Dm
As heavy as a history book can be,
F A# F Am
I will carry it with me, oh Lord.
Dm
And maybe when the bitterness has gone,
F A# F Am
There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more.
[Bridge]
Eb A# F
We'll soon forget our parents' names,
Eb A# F
Like dogs will drive the wolves away.
Eb A#
And weep with fingertips opposed,
F Eb F Eb
Like a church where nobody congregates.
[Middle 8/Outro Verse]
Gm A# F Eb
But sweetness sings in the pasture,
Gm A# F Eb
We throw ourselves on the mercy of the earth.
Gm A# F Eb
If sand and salt have the answer,
Gm A# F Eb
Then the act itself will be louder than the word.
Gm A# F Eb
And I'll be on your side, and I'll be on your side.
Gm A# F Eb
Gm A# F Eb
And I'll be on your side, and I'll be on your side.
Gm A# F Ab
