(open strings)
FA DO SOL
I count the hours, you count the days together,
FA SOL FA //////
we count the minutes in this passion play.
FA DO SOL
Walk dusty miles, and I ride that train,
FA DO SOL FA //////
on a first class ticket, just to be with you again.
(Chorus)
RE SOL RE SOL
Picking up tired feet, back from a far horizon,
RE SOL RE DO
Cleaned up and brushed down, dressed to look the part.
RE SOL RE SOL
Fresh from God's garden, I bring a gift of roses
RE SOL RE
DO
to stand in sweet spring water and press them to your heart.
FA DO SOL
Like the Kipling cat, I walk alone,
FA DO SOL FA
never inviting trouble, never casting the stone.
DO SOL
But this badge of honour is of tarnished tin,
FA DO SOL FA
light your guiding beacon to bring this fisher in.
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
