Hymn For The Unsung chords by The Steel Wheels

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

N.C       G+G            C majorC
Hymns from the loudest voice, till quiet ones rejoice

G+G             D MajorD
 Your bitter silence tasted

     G+G            C majorC
And to all the beaten down in those forgotten towns

G+G       D MajorD    G+G
 Let no more time be wasted

Verse 2:

       G+G             C majorC
There are no words to sing this little song I bring

G+G            D MajorD
 I come here empty-handed

      G+G         C majorC
There is no day too bright, no darkened night

G+G       D MajorD      G+G
 There are no wishes granted

Chorus:

That can take this music from me

 Music from me

   C majorC      G+G
Can't take it from me

Verse 3:

      G+G             C majorC
Though pockets lose their wealth and dust climbs upon the shelf

G+G             D MajorD
 This beauty will not wither

      G+G         C majorC
So with hungry baby face or hands all leather-traced

G+G       D MajorD     G+G
 Come to the bounty hither

Chorus:

       G+G           C majorC
So go on and ring those bells, lay on your cockle shells

G+G              D MajorD
 There is no sound displeasing

       G+G             C majorC
Run get your pots and pans, tame wood and steel for hands

G+G      D MajorD    G+G
 Hold up to all your mystery

Chorus:

Verse 5:

     G+G               C majorC
All sounds from mother deep, this wild mountain steep

G+G             D MajorD
 We see our days before us

      G+G              C majorC
So to each make her own noise, sweet rhymes with simple voice

G+G       D MajorD     G+G
 But join an ancient chorus

Chorus:

  G+G   G/AG/A C/BC/B C majorC
But don't take your music from me

 Music from me

You won't take it from me

Oh, please don't take this music from me

You can't take it from me
