Chords with lyrics
Eliza Gilkyson - The Ark
INTRO: DmDm A minorAm G+G FF A minorAm
N.C. C majorC
It was just about a year ago
FF C majorC G+G
I woke up from a dream
C majorC
That filled my soul with wonder
Where the heavens rained down water
FF C majorC G+G
And it filled the lakes and streams
C majorC
And the world was shook by thunder
DmDm A minorAm
And the waters came together
G+G C majorC FF
'Til they formed a mighty sea
A minorAm FF A minorAm
And all the land went under
C majorC
So I started making plans
FF C majorC G+G
And my sons all felled the trees
C majorC
And the wood they set to planing
While the women built the stockpile
FF C majorC G+G
Of provision grain and seeds
C majorC
And relationships were straining
DmDm A minorAm
All the townfolk think we're crazy
G+G C majorC
When we pass them on the street
FF A minorAm
They look down at their feet
BRIDGE:
DmDm A minorAm
It's three hundred cubits long
G+G FF
Like the belly of a bird
DmDm A minorAm
Three decks high and strong enough
FF G+G
To ride upon the surge
INSTRUMENTAL: C majorC FF C majorC G+G C majorC FF C majorC G+G C majorC DmDm A minorAm G+G C majorC FF A minorAm FF A minorAm
C majorC
So gather up the grandchildren
FF C majorC G+G
And all the ones we love
C majorC
And the animals for breeding
Don't forget the donkeys
FF C majorC
And the ravens and the doves
G+G C majorC
Someday we might need them
DmDm A minorAm
There is nothing we can do now
G+G C majorC
For the ones who will remain
FF A minorAm FF A minorAm
And the sky that looks like rain
FF A minorAm DmDm A minorAm G+G FF A minorAm
And the sky looks like rain
