Shoulders

(início)

     G                            D
On a pale horse he did ride, And sing my songs
   Em                                  C
I touched you then and feared, That the dark would spread indeed
      G                                D
And leave hollow shells of friends and strangers all
   F                  C             G
But still I bore the gift of life, somehow
       Em                                        C
And you?d ask me, If my breast was filled with embers or with ash
       G               D
Was hope or but despair upon my crown
   Em                           C
Mother, sweet mother don?t you worry on your son
         G                       D
For my heart contains a fire that shall burn long
chorus
             C      D
And I shall lay my head
         G      F#       Em
In the valley with my friends
      C                D             Em
I?ll quit my scheming ways and rest again
              C       D
Cause I shall lay my head
      G         F#        Em
On the shoulders of great men
      C              D       G
And live my life until its honest end
  G        D       G then go into the second verse, same as the first
verse 2
And so brick by brick I tell myself
Oh, slowly build a home
Anchor now before the storm rolls on
Found a new Jerusalem and build your wailing wall
But seek not the sea and life wandering alone
chorus x2
Oh yes lay your head
In the valley with your friends
Oh quit your scheming ways and rest again
Oh yes lay your head
On the shoulders of great men
And live your life until its honest end
Oh yes lay your head
On the shoulders of great men
And live your life until its honest end.
