Indigo Girls – Happy In The Sorrow Key (Guitar Intro)

A      D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7
  As I lay my burden down

A      D  Dmaj7  D  Dmaj7
 In the cradle of an elegy

A       D  Dmaj7  D   Dmaj7    G
 In the shotgun shape of this life

F#                       Bm         G F# Bm G F# 
  I'm happy happy in the sorrow key

Bm                  G
 Hadrian's wall was mighty

A                 
 Not so mighty it didn't fall

Bm                  G
I roamed among its sod and stone

    A
To wonder how we come apart

    F#m                Bm 
The earth it holds the human toll

    Em7                 A
The heavens bow to the gravity

    Bm                 G
The bursting heart the bleeding brain

   A
In grief we shift tectonically

A      D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7
  As I lay my burden down

A      D  Dmaj7  D  Dmaj7
 In the cradle of an elegy

A       D  Dmaj7  D   Dmaj7    G
 In the shotgun shape of this life

F#                       Bm         G F# Bm G F# 
  I'm happy happy in the sorrow key

Bm                  G
Three days moored in Singapore

A
The ancient lure of currency

Bm                  G
The rain came down the trade winds blew

A
And held me anchored to my dues

F#m                Bm 
Slumbering I felt a tug

Em7               A
I ran to little India

    Bm                G
To find a beggar's clarity

A                           A A D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7
And eat the spice of deities

D
When I close my eyes

           G
Imagine us dead and gone

                    Em
The bright light of kingdom come

            A
But I can't see

D
Take it out of my hands

          G
I want to know the truth

               Em
The eye of the eagle

           A
To deliver me

     G           F#     
I'm happy in the sorrow
