Chords with lyrics
[Verse 1]
D MajorD G+G
Bless me, Lord
E minorEm G+G D MajorD E minorEm G+G
I'm only after what you promised me
D MajorD G+G E minorEm G+G
So break me, Lord, and with the pieces
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
make another tree
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
Make another tree
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
He spoke to me
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
He spoke to me
[Chorus]
A augmentedA G+G
He said, "Take only that which you can carry on your back
A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
Just leave the children in the yard and in time,
E minorEm D MajorD
they'll gladly turn to dust."
[Verse 2]
D MajorD G+G E minorEm G+G
Let me lay here in the grass
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
All eternity
D MajorD G+G E minorEm G+G
Let the wind and rain consume me
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
Then I will be free
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
I will be free
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
I want it now
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
I want it now
[Chorus]
A augmentedA G+G
So, "Take only that which you can carry on your back
A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
Just leave the children in the yard and in time,
E minorEm D MajorD
they'll gladly turn to dust."
E minorEm G+G
And if they handed me the gold,
D MajorD G+G
I'd slap it from their hands
E minorEm G+G
Then I'd kiss and mourn the sheep
A augmentedA
That can't understand
A augmentedA
They won't understand
[Verse 3]
D MajorD G+G
Bless me, Lord
E minorEm G+G D MajorD E minorEm G+G
I'm only after what you promised me
D MajorD G+G E minorEm G+G
So break me lord and with the pieces
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
make another tree
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
Make another tree
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
