Bonnie "Prince" Billy – Three Questions (Guitar)

E
Say I found a piece of rock

    A               E
And put it in my pocket

E
And for the day that we are wed

    A          E
I put it in a locket

            A                 E
Which is to hang around your neck

    A              E
As long as you see fit

E
Well, tell me, o my love

        A          F#         B
Do you think that you would wear it?

E
And on the day that threatens

         A                E
That the earth might open up

E
The birds have stopped their singing

         A                E
And the insects have shut up

     A                 E
And all that's left between us

        A          E
Is some alhamdulillah

E
Oh would you split it with me, baby

A       F#          B
So that I wouldn't die?

E
And after all these things

       A              E
Is a question I must ask

E
When everyone has called me out

      A            E
And said I am the worst

E
And asked for voices on my side

       A                E
My love, would you sing first?

          A            E
Would you say, "He's okay,

       A              E
He's better than the rest.

E
He's innocent in god's eyes

       A        F#      B
And in mine, he is the best?"
