The church bells ring out morning glory
          FF          G+G      C majorC
When summer bends to the winter's rage

Emily walks through the cemetery
A minorAm    FF       G+G        C majorC    FF C majorC
Passed a dog in an unmarked grave
C majorC        FF      G+G    C majorC
The old girl hobbles, nylons sagging
          FF      G+G   C majorC
Talks to her sisters in the ground
A minorAm   FF      G+G           C majorC
I saw a lie in the mirror this morning
A minorAm     FF       G+G    A minorAm  G/BG/B
I heard a prophesy all around
   FF C majorC             Fm/C
And Emily they come and go
      C#/Ab   Eb MajorEb            F6F6
The shadows   and the distant sounds
  FF  C majorC         Fm/C
But Emily don't be afraid
            C#/Ab Eb MajorEb            F6F6
When the weight of angels weighs you down
Emily prays to a faded hero
In a little frame clutched to her gown
Hears the voice of promise in his memory
Tonight's the night they let the ladder down
In a cage sits a gold canary
By a wicker chair and a rosewood loom
As a soul ascends abord the evening
Canary sings to an empty room
FF C majorC
