Verse 1
(G major) 1
And he (C major) who (G major) was (C major) righteous
loomed (D major) radiant, (G major)
striding behind the Lord's (C major) messenger
an (D major) d up the black hill (G major)
She walked re (C major) luctant
Alarms (D major) spoke (G major) within her
It's not too (C major) late, you (D major) may look on it (G major) still
On (C major) the vermilion stained
towers (D major) of (G major) Sodom
You spun in the corn,
you (A major) sang in the (D major) square
That (G major) house whose tall windows
confront (C major) you with blackness (G major)
Knew (E minor) you were bright
You bore (G major) your son's there
She turned to be (C major) hold it
And (D major) pain was her (G major) master
Her eyes yearn (C major) ing toward it
(D major) Could no longer see (G major)
So I grew her (C major) body, (D major)
the blood it (G major) was her
Firm earth held her (C major) feet
(D major) They would never go free (G major)
And (C major) is there not one
who would (D major) wait for this (G major) woman?
Or one who would find her loss
(A major) bitter to (D major) breath?
I'll (G major) own in my heart an eclipsed (C major) (G major) time
(A minor) I (G major) forgot to end (D major) (E minor)
Shielded overhead (D major) life (G major)
for one (C major) look (G major) (D major)
(E minor) She'll give all her life (G major) for
one (D major) love (G major) (C major) (D major)
(G major) (C major)
You
(D major)
