Capo 1
C
This postcard tells you where we've been
G
And dirty dreams of pious men
F
Who wake in fear but sleep again
G
With what they've done
C
With what they've done
G
With all they've done
C
Some prophet died but wrote it down
G
Our serpent bell is on the ground
F
And all the ladies singing loud:
G
"Hallelujah"
C
"Hallelujah"
G
"Hallelujah"
F G
The meadow birds have found the bones of righteous men
C G
Like ragged clothes, like precious stones
F G
And fell like evil in the end, in aid of them
C G
Those evil men, those perfect men
C
Some knuckle broken on disease
G
Which pulled a preacher off his knees
F
A callous whisper through the trees
G
Blows: "patience boy"
C
"More patience boy"
G
"More patience boy"
C
And watch her children by the flame
G
The ones you gave your father's name
F
Whose evil and his love remained
G
Inside you boy
C
Inside you boy
G
Inside you boy
F G
The meadow birds have found the bones of righteous men
C G
Like ragged clothes, like precious stones
F G
And fell like evil in the end, in aid of them
C G
Those evil men, those perfect men
C
We'll sing a song we've never heard
G
Formed out of small forsaken words
F
And all the while that this occurs
G
We'll love you all
C
We'll love you all
G
We'll love you all
C
And for the beauty that we've lost
G
The measured time for love it cost
F
Despite our feelings for the cross
G
We love you all
C
We love you all
G
We love you all
