Caroline Herring - I Went For A augmentedA Month


CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO: G+G E minorEm C majorC D MajorD (2x)

 G+G     E minorEm       G+G
I went for a month into the mountains
  C majorC      G+G   B minorBm    C majorC
And breathed the air so fresh and clean
 G+G         E minorEm      G+G
I walked across the bridge to my cabin
  C majorC    E minorEm  B minorBm   C majorC
And smiling faces waited there

  G+G      E minorEm      G+G
We swam and we rode upon the horses
  C majorC    G+G       B minorBm   C majorC
We sang and danced in one joyous wheel
G+G       E minorEm         G+G
Tetherball and four-square by the fountain
  C majorC     E minorEm      B minorBm  C majorC
And heart-sung blessings at every meal


     D MajorD        G+G
I want to live, I want to run
C majorC       G+G
Through these open fields
        D MajorD          G+G
Where there is hope, where there is joy
     C majorC     B minorBm
Where the mountains yield
    E minorEm               A augmentedA
To our prayers and songs for peace on Earth
     C majorC
Where we nestle in our beds
          B minorBm     D MajorD
And hear the finest symphony on Earth


 G+G     E minorEm       G+G
I went for a month into the mountains
  C majorC    G+G      B minorBm    C majorC
I awoke and said, "Good morning, sun"
  G+G      E minorEm      G+G
And as it rose into the sky we counted
C majorC    E minorEm    B minorBm   C majorC
All our blessings one by one

 G+G      E minorEm        G+G
I acted in the plays and ran the courses
  C majorC      G+G  B minorBm   C majorC
And stretched my body with delight
G+G       E minorEm         G+G
All a part of this great group of laughter
   C majorC    E minorEm   B minorBm    C majorC
That stayed until we said goodnight


    D MajorD       G+G
Day is done, gone the sun
      C majorC     G+G
From lakes, hills and skies
    D MajorD        G+G
And we stood around the fire
     C majorC    B minorBm
Warmed by embered light
    E minorEm               A augmentedA
Singing songs and prayers for peace on Earth
    C majorC
Then we nestled in our beds
           B minorBm     D MajorD
And heard the finest symphony on Earth


G+G           E minorEm   G+G
When my time had ended in the mountains
     C majorC    G+G    B minorBm   C majorC
My mother drove me down the winding roads
    G+G           E minorEm       G+G
Weaving through the tears and towns into the flatlands
   C majorC    E minorEm       B minorBm   C majorC
And I wondered which I should call my home


  G+G       E minorEm        G+G
The world has its meanness and vainglory
     C majorC    G+G  B minorBm  C majorC
Sometimes I think I cannot endure
  G+G        E minorEm        G+G
And then I close my eyes and feel the mountains
  C majorC     E minorEm      B minorBm  C majorC
And hold close all of my mem'ries there


       D MajorD          G+G
Where I could live, where I could run
      C majorC  G+G
Through the open fields
        D MajorD          G+G
Where there is hope, where there is joy
     C majorC     B minorBm
Where the mountains yield
    E minorEm               A augmentedA
To our prayers and songs for peace on Earth
     C majorC
Where we nestled in our beds
           B minorBm     D MajorD
And heard the finest symphony on Earth
