Lucy Kaplansky - Scavenger


CAPO: 2nd Fret



INTRO: D  G D

       G   D
Once, a long time ago
   G   D
I was cast away, left for dead
        A
A child on the road
    G   D
Just a scavenger
   G    D
Never looked around
   G     D          A   D
Just watched my shoes moving forward on the ground

       G              D
Looking for a corner, feather-face, man or ring
        G           A
And a piece of string to tie them on me
    G     D
To keep little bit warm
     G    D
I wrap myself in leaves
     G    D
What was thrown away
     A     G  D
I picked up like a refugee


CHORUS:
    G
You may never hear the angels sing
    D
On the "Voice Of God", all night
    A
You may walk yourself, alone
      Bm
Through the hills of the night
    G
But you walk with the ones you love
    D
In the valley of your life

You'll always stand with the ones you keep
    A       D
In the valley of your life


       G   D
Once, a long time ago
   G   D
There was a shepherd
        A
Took one of his own
  G      D
He took him up high
    G   D
Raised up his knife
  G     D
No words were spoken
     A     D
His face filled the sky


     G         D
Leave his family, leave his home
       G        A
Set free the men, set free to roam
   G       D
Baby, when I?ve got scavengers
       G   D
Through this dusty road
              A  D
When I?m at highway, life?s open road
    Bm       A  D
Another refugee, life?s open road


CHORUS:
    G
You may never hear the angels sing
    D
On the "Voice Of God", all night
    A
You may walk yourself, alone
      Bm
Through the hills of the night
    G
But you walk with the ones you love
    D
In the valley of your life

You'll always stand with the ones you keep
    A       D
In the valley of your life


INSTRUMENTAL: G D A D G D G D
