Bruce Cockburn - Messenger Wind Chords

[Verse 1]
F                                G
In a horse-powered sleigh at the top of the town
C                        F                         C
Sun coming up paints the snow all around with rose light

[Verse 2]
F                               G
In front of the house where I'm supposed to be born
C                          F                           C
I don't think I'm ready to walk through that door just yet
G         C/G           C
 
[Verse 3]
F                           G
To be one more voice in the human choir
C                          F                    C
Rising like smoke from the mystical fire of the heart
G         C/G           C

[Verse 4]
F                           G
The wind that blows through everything
C                          F                    C
Sweeps out the halls of my heart when I sing to you
G         C/G           C
 
[Verse 5]
F                           G
It carries the moon and the stars and the rain
C                        F                C
Carries the seagulls and carries my shame away
G         C/G           C
 
[Verse 6]
F                         G
Spins me around, stops me running away
C                             F                  C
From all the things I've been waiting to say But don't
G         C/G           C

Sun coming up paints the snow all around
C                         F                    C
Rose on the roofs and the trees and the ground and the stream
G                C/G     C
                         In my dream
 
[Verse 8]
F                       G
Messenger wind swooping out of the sky
C                            F            C
Lights each tiny speck in my human kaleidoscope
G         C/G          C
                  With hope
