[Verse]
AmBdim7Ddim7Fdim7Gdim7
Morning comes, she follows the path to the river shore
AmBdim7
Lightly sung, her song is the latch on the morning’s door
AmC
See the sun, sparkle in the reeds
AmCBmD
Silver beads, pass to the sea
[Bridge]
DA7
She comes from a town where they call her the wood cutter’s daughter
A7D
She’s brown as the bank where she kneels down to gather her water
DBm
She bears it away with a love that the river has taught her
AmCEm/F#
Let it flow, let it flow, wide and clear
[Verse]
AmBdim7Ddim7Fdim7Gdim7
Round and round, the cut of the plow in the furrowed fields
AmBdim7
Season’s round, the bushels of corn and the barley meal
AmC
Broken ground, open and beckoning
AmCBmD
To the spring, black dirt live again
[Bridge]
DA7
The plowman is broad as the back of the land he is sowing
A7D
As he dances the circular track of the plow ever knowing
DBm
That the work of his days measures more than the planting and growing
AmAmCEm/F#
Let it grow, let it grow, greatly yield
[Chorus]
Em/F#BGEm/F#
What shall we say, shall we call it by a name
CGBm7
As well to count the angels dancing on a pin
Em/F#BGEm/F#
Water bright as the sky from which it came
DA
And the name is on the earth that takes it in
CGEm/F#
We will not speak, but stand inside the rain
CGDEmAmCEm/F#
And listen to the thunder shout, "I am, I am, I am, I am"
[verse jam]
[Verse]
AmBdim7Ddim7Fdim7Gdim7
So it goes, we make what we made since the world began
AmBdim7
Nothing more, the love of the women, work of man
AmC
Seasons round, creatures great and small
AmCBmD
Up and down, as we rise and fall
DFmE
Jam on Am7
Jam on Em7
[Chorus]
Em/F#BGEm/F#
What shall we say, shall we call it by a name
CGBm7
As well to count the angels dancing on a pin
Em/F#BGEm/F#
Water bright as the sky from which it came
DA
And the name is on the earth that takes it in
CGEm/F#
We will not speak, but stand inside the rain
CGDEmAmCEm/F#
And listen to the thunder shout, "I am, I am, I am, I am"
