i hope this okay , my first chords , i’ve only been playing guitar a few weeks and i
just noticed that this beautiful song was not up . so , here .
it’s very very easy , just play each chord once when indicated , the voice on this
track is the strongest/most important thing anyway .

C G G
mama said lift your head from the sieve of your hands
C G
mama say eventually , this hurting will end
C
but the shockwaves on my bones will linger
G
like the ghost of you here in my bed

Em G
when i was lost you thought me a beautiful find
G Em
sometimes i think of you sleeping , so sleep for a while
G Em Em
i find myself asking who’d do this to love
D Em
and the white shouldered mountains , they pointed above

Em G Em
lord you just dropped me here my the side of this road
G Em
out here’s too cold and i don’t want to walk it alone
G Em D
i’ve got a bottle of your blood inside me
D G
and an old beggar’s prayer on the tip of my tongue

C C G G Em Em G G Em Em D x2

G C G
mama said lift your head from the sieve of your hands
C Em
mama said eventually this hurting will end
