[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Am There's grievin' in the country Em Dm There's sorrow in the sand Am There's sobbin' in the shanty Em Am And there's anger in the land
[Verse 2]
Am A woman broods in silence Em Dm Close beside an open door Am Flung on her flimsy doorstep Em Am Asus4 Am Lies a corpse upon the floor
[Verse 3]
Am "You'll not ask me why I'm silent" Em Dm The woman said to me Am Her two eyes blazed in anger Em Am And her throat throbbed agony
[Verse 4]
Am Oh, once my heart could cry in sorrow Em Dm Now it lies there on the floor Am In the ashes by the hearthstone Em Am They can't hurt it anymore
[Verse 5]
Am Oh, let the wind go cryin' yonder Em Dm In the treetops by the spring Am Let its voice be soft and feeling Em Am Like it was a living thing
[Verse 6]
Am There's grievin' in the country Em Am Dm There's sorrow in the sand Am There's sobbin' in the shanty Em Am And there's anger in the land
