Gather the Hands - Xavier Rudd
{Intro}
BB 
D#mD#m 
F#F# 
C#C# x2
Verse:
BB D#mD#m
She was delivered by the grace of his hands
F#F# C#C#
Kindness, relentless, wired to be shared
BB D#mD#m
People stood awkwardly and gazed across the room
F#F# C#C#
She walked with such elegance in the places that she knew
{Verse]
BB D#mD#m
Flawlessness, contagious, compassionate, engagement
F#F# C#C#
In these hands I belong, in these hands you belong
BB D#mD#m
Foolish, segregation, scars deep beneath the skin
F#F# C#C#
Of the black man and the white man and everyone in between
BB D#mD#m F#F# C#C# x2
{Verse]
BB D#mD#m
Forever sacred was the feminine, right down to the final hour
F#F# C#C#
When every baby to be taken was to be poisoned to be soured
BB D#mD#m
Bodies turning in their graves and spirits waiting to go home
F#F# C#C#
Disconnected from their holy place when the museum stole their bones
{Verse]
BB D#mD#m
Cry freedom, still bleeding, still waiting for a reason
F#F# C#C#
Throw these arms around the world, Throw these arms around the world
BB D#mD#m
Through the eye of a needle we tried to move the stone
F#F# C#C#
So heavy from its history, of shame and blood and bone
BB D#mD#m F#F# C#C#
Chorus:
F#F#
Gather the hands to move the stone
C#C#
Gather the hands to move the stone
BB
Sing it up to the heavens
D#mD#m C#C#
Let it rain down on us all
(x6)
Outro:
BB D#mD#m
Through the eye of a needle we tried to move the stone
F#F# C#C#
So heavy from its history, of shame and blood and bone
