I love the country house,

Gm 
the country house waits for us
Overgrown fruit trees, fragments of gates
A dried up creek, coiled up snakes
Whispering tall trees around you here
Ab 
What do you fear?
G 
Gm 
A  doorway through cobwebs
and blackened rivers
That brings forth and
C 
tends another
Gm 
Beginning a time of land and sky
Learning to walk as a mother
Ab 
Learning to walk as a mother
Abm 
Gm 
The first time of birth time, a primal time
Is late for a quiet land
C 
Gm 
To be held by a house, waiting to hold
Ab 
A family by the hand
Bb 
Gm 
Let's sweep up the cobwebs
and pull back the vines
C 
Growing through the place in twine
Gm 
For the children it's our duty
To wake up the sleeping beauty
To wake up the sleeping beauty
