Verse 2
I heard of this famous harp (G major) years ago
Back in my (A major) home town (D major)
But I sure never thought old
(G major) Daniel'd be the one
To come and bring (A major) it around
(B minor)
Verse 3
(D major)
Tell me Daniel how (A major) the harp
(G major) came into your posses (D major) sion
Are you one of the chosen (A major) few
Who will march (G major) in the the procession
(D major)
Verse 4
(G major)
And (B minor) Daniel said (D major)
The sacred harp was (A major) handed down,
from (D major) father unto son (A major)
And (G major) me not being related, (D major)
(B minor) I could nev (E major) er (A major) be the one (E major) (A major)
So I saved (D major) up all my sil (A major) ver
and (D major) took it to a man (A major)
Who (G major) said he could deliv (B minor) er the
harp (E major) straight into my hand
(D major)
Verse 5
Three (B minor) years I waited pa (E major) tiently
'Til he returned (A major) with the harp
from the sea (G major) of Galilee
He said (B minor) there is one more
thing (E major) I must ask
But (A major) not of personal greed (G major)
But (F sharp minor) I wouldn't listen,
I just grabbed (B minor) the harp
And said, "take (A major) what you may

Now (D major) Daniel looked quite sat (G major) isfied
And the harp it seemed (A major) to glow (D major)
But the price that Daniel had really (G major) paid
He did (A major) not even know (B minor)
(D major) Back to his brother,
he (A major) took his troubled mind
And he (G major) said, "dear brother,
I'm in (D major) a bind"
But the brother would not hear (A major) his tale
He said (G major) Old Daniel's gonna (D major) land in jail
So to his father, Daniel (A major) did run
And he (D major) said, "oh father,
what have (A major) I done?"
His (G major) father said, "son, you've (D major) given (B minor) in
You know you (E major) won your harp
But you (D major) lost in sin"
Verse 7
Then Daniel (B minor) took the harp and
went high (E major) on the hill
And he (A major) blew across the meadow
like a (G major) whippoorwill
He played (B minor) out his heart
just for time (E major) to pass
But as he (A major) looked to the ground
He (B minor) no ticed, no shadow (G major) did

he cast
(D major) (G major) (D major)

(G major) Dancing (E minor) through (G major) the clover (D major)
(G major) Daniel, Daniel would (D major) you mind
(A major) If I look it over
