there’s hope for you
off the album , animals in the dark
arranged by tyler peterson
this is a really beautiful song and i’m surprised no one else has posted it yet . so
try my best .
on the e’s i’ve noticed will hammers on the 1st fret of the G string , and in the later
of the 2nd verse he plays the a’s with 4th fret of the D string strumming with a little
off at the end . the C# on the 4th to the Dmaj on the 5th is the same chord shape
just slide it down .
A D
my little sparrow there is hope for you
A E
your life has just begun
A D
and i could not do what i wanted to
A E
but i fear my time is almost done
A D
but through your actions truth will carry on
A E
go forth with joy in your heart
A D
and even though i will be gone
A E
you’ve got to play your part
A
listen to me now . . .
chorus
A C# 4thfret
you will overcome , i promise you
Dmaj 5thfret A
and be whatever it is that you want to be
A
there is hope for you
D
oh there’s hope for you
A E A
but it’s much too late for me
A D
wayward weeping voices that you will hear
A E
each with their own story to tell
A D
and you have the choice to bend your ear
A E A
and treat your fellow humans well
D A
so goodbye my little sparrow
D A
it’s time that i must go
D A
to keep on the straight and narrow
A E A
there’s something you must know
A
listen to me now . . .
