Intro (and verses): Em—Asus2 (x2)
Em Asus2 Dear seven sisters, all is distance here All look into never Em Asus2 out of every face I'll let you be my belief if I can be your doubt Em Asus2 Signed from Persia: Kind subversion of a kind I couldn't say Em Asus2 As our blessed lack of conversation Has kept me alive so far today
Em Asus2 (x2)
Em Asus2 All my savings soon were spent, so in the vales of early Fall Em Asus2 Under table, covered rent by packing bales of barley straw Em Asus2 With efforts held to circumvent the watchful eye of federal law Em Asus2 And mama, though I've been so alone G D Asus2 My faith in love is still devout (x 4) Em Asus2 With solemn sounds the potter's ground beneath our bare wandering feet Em Asus2 Our crooked hearts in Sacred Harp sang out of the dark inside us deep Em Asus2 Their shapes of sorrow fell like shadows on the farm-to-market roads Em Asus2 That led my stumbling steps back home Em Asus2 But mama why four fires burning? Why so quiet Father's room? Em Asus2 Has he not heard his son returning? or has he gone to gather food? Em Asus2 Or is he stomping in the forest? or has he wandered into town? Em Asus2 "Son, I think it's best that you sit down- G D Asus2 His faith in love was still devout..." (x 7, x1 over last 'devout') Bm G A G Mama, sing my favorite hymn As I sink deep into the grass Bm G A G And the night birds beat me with their wings With horrid laughter as they pass Bm G A G The stage goes dim, its pageants finished Fleeting worlds to which I've clung with a now extinguished longing Bm G A G Mama, sing my favorite hymn Where we make ploughshares from our swords Bm G A G And the mason's barber trim our Christmas tree In the Oneness of the Lord Bm G A G What grace surrounds! what strange perfection! Mamma, sing my favorite hymn
