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