Beggars Prayer chords by Emiliana Torrini

Chords with lyrics

C majorC     G+G            G+G
Mama said lift your head from the sieve of your hands
C majorC             G+G
Mama say eventually, this hurting will end
     C majorC
But the shockwaves on my bones will linger
     G+G
Like the ghost of you here in my bed

E minorEm          G+G
When I was lost you thought me a beautiful find
G+G                 E minorEm
Sometimes I think of you sleeping, so sleep for a while
G+G       E minorEm   E minorEm
I find myself asking who'd do this to love
     D MajorD             E minorEm
And the white shouldered mountains, they pointed above

E minorEm       G+G           E minorEm
Lord you just dropped me here my the side of this road
G+G             E minorEm
Out here's too cold and I don't want to walk it alone
G+G     E minorEm          D MajorD
I've got a bottle of your blood inside me
D MajorD                      G+G
And an old beggar's prayer on the tip of my tongue

C majorC C G+G G MajorG E minorEm Em G+G G MajorG E minorEm Em D MajorD x2

G+G       C majorC         G+G
Mama said lift your head from the sieve of your hands
C majorC             E minorEm
Mama said eventually this hurting will end
