The Nightwatchman - Flesh Shapes The Day Chords

[Intro]
 
E
 
 
[Verse]
 
    E
Now you might have heard different but I know it's a fact
     E
That Jesus, Mary, Joseph and the Apostle Paul were black
    A
Ten letters I am writing each one reads the same
         E
And nine circles I am drawing one around your name
B
Land and freedom, steel and faith
A
Tooth and bone and wire
E
Skin, scar, dirt and fire mic check
           B
It doesn't matter who you are
            A
It does not matter what you say
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                 G  E G E
Flesh shapes the day
                 G  E
Flesh shapes the day
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
    E
Now it's clear as a pillar of smoke and broken Starbuck's glass
    E
Yeah, I support my troops they wave black flags, they wear black masks
A
All the roads are closed smoke is rising from the fields
    E
The monsters left their cages an angel set them free
B
Land and freedom, steel and faith
A
Tooth and bone and wire
    E
And skin, scar, dirt and fire mic check
           B
It doesn't matter who you are
            A
It does not matter what you say
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
                 G  E G E
Flesh shapes the day
                 G  E
Flesh shapes the day

[Verse 3]
 
          E
Veteran's hospitals and witches spells lLow to buy and high to sell
    E
And little girls collecting shells and memories upon the shelves
    A
And ringing bells and high school choirs and faithful dogs beside the fire
    E
And billionaires and open bars and early exits and judgments hard
B
Land and freedom, steel and faith
A
Tooth and bone and wire
    E
And skin, scar, dirt and fire mic check
           B
It doesn't matter who you are
            A
It does not matter what you say
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
                 G  E G E
Flesh shapes the day
                 G  E G E
Flesh shapes the day
                 G  E G E
Flesh shapes the day
                 G  E
Flesh shapes the day
