A augmentedA   D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7
 As I lay my burden down
A augmentedA   D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7
 In the cradle of an elegy
A augmentedA    D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7 D MajorD  Dmaj7Dmaj7  G+G
 In the shotgun shape of this life

 I'm happy happy in the sorrow key

verse 1
B minorBm         G+G
 Hadrian's wall was mighty
A augmentedA
 Not so mighty it didn't fall
B minorBm         G+G
I roamed among its sod and stone
  A augmentedA
To wonder how we come apart
  F# minorF#m        B minorBm
The earth it holds the human toll
  E minor 7Em7         A augmentedA
The heavens bow to the gravity
  B minorBm         G+G
The bursting heart the bleeding brain
  A augmentedA
In grief we shift tectonically

A augmentedA   D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7
 As I lay my burden down
A augmentedA   D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7
 In the cradle of an elegy
A augmentedA    D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7 D MajorD  Dmaj7Dmaj7  G+G
 In the shotgun shape of this life
F#F#            B minorBm     G+G F#F# B minorBm G+G F#F#
 I'm happy happy in the sorrow key

verse 2
B minorBm         G+G
Three days moored in Singapore
A augmentedA
The ancient lure of currency
B minorBm         G+G
The rain came down the trade winds blew
A augmentedA
And held me anchored to my dues
F# minorF#m        B minorBm
Slumbering I felt a tug
E minor 7Em7        A augmentedA
I ran to little India
  B minorBm        G+G
To find a beggar's clarity
A augmentedA              A augmentedA A majorA D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7
And eat the spice of deities

Bridge
D MajorD
When I close my eyes
      G+G
Imagine us dead and gone
          E minorEm
The bright light of kingdom come
      A augmentedA
But I can't see
D MajorD
Take it out of my hands
     G+G
I want to know the truth
        E minorEm
The eye of the eagle
      A augmentedA
To deliver me
   G+G      F#F#
I'm happy in the sorrow
