Intro:
G minorGm C minorCm DmDm

Verse 1:
G minorGm
Mary, carry your babe
G minorGm         C minorCm       DmDm
bound up tight like lips around a whimper
G minorGm
Your fingers over my face
G minorGm         C minorCm      DmDm
blind eyed sampson driven to the temple
G minorGm
and night birds digging 'til dawn
G minorGm         C minorCm     DmDm
Freedom hangs like heaven over everyone
G minorGm
Ain't nobody knows what a newborn holds
G minorGm                C minorCm
but his mama says he'll walk on water
   DmDm     G minorGm
and wander back home

G minorGm

Verse 2:
G minorGm
Mary, carry your shame
G minorGm         C minorCm       DmDm
well past all those eyes across the avenue
G minorGm
Fish heads running from rain
G minorGm        C minorCm      DmDm
you know I'll do anything you want me to
G minorGm
Lamp oil lovers may say,
G minorGm         C minorCm     DmDm
"Freedom hangs like heaven over everyone"
G minorGm
Ain't nobody knows what a new born holds
G minorGm                  C minorCm
but his papa's gonna to hide shaking gristle
   DmDm     G minorGm
and shaking like bone

G minorGm

Verse 3:
G minorGm
Mary, carry My name
G minorGm          C minorCm      DmDm
hoof marks hacked up all I had to offer you
G minorGm
Look all over this place
G minorGm         C minorCm       DmDm
Lost your portrait lately when the winter blew
G minorGm
In like Herod and them
G minorGm         C minorCm     DmDm
Freedom hangs like heaven over everyone
G minorGm
Anybody knows what a newborn holds
G minorGm                C minorCm
but a dollar says he'll lick that devil
  DmDm    G minorGm
and do it alone

Outro:
G minorGm
