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