[Intro]
G G G Em D
[Verse 1]
G G G Em D Here we come to a turning of the season G G G Em D Witness to the arc toward the sun G G G Em D A neighbor's blessed burden within reason G G G Becomes a burden born of all and one
[Chorus]
Em D C And nobody, nobody knows C C G Let the yoke fall from our shoulders C C Em D Don't carry it all, don't carry it all C C G We are all our hands and holders Bm C Beneath this bold and brilliant sun C G G G Em D This I swear to all
[Verse 2]
G G G Em D Monument to build beneath the arbors G G G Em D Upon a plinth that towers toward the trees G G G Em D Let every vessel pitching hard to starboard G G G Lay its head on summer's freckled knees
[Chorus]
Em D C And nobody, nobody knows C C G Let the yoke fall from our shoulders C C Em D Don't carry it all, don't carry it all C C G We are all our hands and holders Bm C Beneath this bold and brilliant sun C G G G Em D G G G Em D This I swear to all, and this I swear to all.
[Bridge]
Bm C And there, a wreath of trillium and ivy Bm Em Laid upon the body of the boy Bm C Lazy will the loam come from its hiding Am D And return this quiet searcher to the soil
[Verse 3]
G G G Em D So raise a glass to turnings of the season G G G Em D And watch it as it arcs towards the sun G G G Em D And you must bear your neighbor's burden within reason G G G And your labors will be borne when all is done
[Chorus]
Em D C And nobody, nobody knows C C G Let the yoke fall from our shoulders C C Em D Don't carry it all, don't carry it all C C G We are all our hands and holders Bm C Beneath this bold and brilliant sun C G G G Em D G G G This I swear to all, and this I swear to all Em D G G G And this I swear to all Em D G G And this I swear to all G Em D G To all, to all, to all
