Verse 1:
A minorAm    E MajorE    A minorAm
Have you seen my husband?
   A minorAm    Em/B   C majorC
You'd know him, if you had
   G+G        C majorC   Em/B
He's known around old London Town
   A minorAm   E MajorE     A minorAm
Most people think he's mad

A minorAm      E MajorE     A minorAm
My husband he talks with angels
     A minorAm      Em/B  C majorC
And with spirits that he can see
  G+G        C majorC  Em/B
He passes time with the divine
  A minorAm   E MajorE     A minorAm
But not so much with me

Chorus:
   FF        C majorC
But I held him when he faltered
   FF          C majorC
When earth and faith did shake
    A minorAm      DmDm
And on my grave the words will say
   A minorAm     E MajorE    A minorAm
"I Believed You, William Blake"


Verse 2:
  A minorAm     E MajorE   A minorAm
We scraped by in the shadows
     A minorAm  Em/B   C majorC
Sown with pity and with scorn
  G+G          C majorC   Em/B
The great and good they never could
A minorAm     E MajorE    A minorAm
Recognize a prophet born

   A minorAm   E MajorE  A minorAm
With poetry and engravings
    A minorAm  Em/B C majorC
He presented Paradise
   G+G        C majorC   Em/B
He revealed to them a Jerusalem
A minorAm       E MajorE  A minorAm
They would not recognize

Chorus:
   FF        C majorC
But I held him when he faltered
   FF          C majorC
When earth and faith did shake
  A minorAm       DmDm
And on my grave the words will say
   A minorAm     E MajorE    A minorAm
"I Believed You, William Blake"
