Western Wall chords by Emmylou Harris

Intro: Bb  Gm

Bb
I stand here by the Western Wall
Gm
Maybe a little of that wall stands inside of us all
Bb
I shove my prayers in the cracks
         Gm
I've got nothing to lose no one to answer back
Eb        Cm                        Eb
All these years I've brought up for review
Eb     Cm                                 Eb
Wasn't taught this but I learned something new
Eb     Cm                   F
And to answer the distance call
       Bb           Gm
At the western wall
Bb
I've got a heart full of fear
      Gm
And I offer it on this alter of tears
Bb
Red dust settles deep in  my skin
        Gm
I don't know where it start and  where I begin
Eb     Cm                       Eb
It's a crumbling pile of broken stones
Eb       Cm                   Eb
It ain't much but it might be home
Eb   Cm                    F
If I ever loved a place at all
         Bb      Gm
It's the western wall

Eb     Cm                    Eb
I dont know if God was ever a man
Eb         Gm                   Eb
But if she was I think I understand
Eb     Cm                         F
Why he found a place to break his fall
         Bb      Gm     Bb   Gm    Bb
Near the Western Wall
