Capo on 1st fret

D C Goldenrod and the 4h stone,

Am G the things I brought you

D C Am G when I found out you had cancer of the bone.

D C Your father cried on the telephone,

Am G and he drove his car into the navy yard,

D C Am G just to prove that he was sorry.

D C In the morning, through the window shade,

Am G when the light pressed up against your shoulderblade,

D C Am G I could see what you were reading.

D C All the glory that the Lord has made,

Am G and the complications you could do without,

D C Am G when I kissed you on the mouth.

D C Tuesday night at the Bible study,

Am G we lift our hands and pray over your body,

D C Am G but nothing ever happens.

D C I remember at Michael's house,

Am G in the living room when you kissed my neck,

D C Am G and I almost touched your blouse.

D C In the morning at the top of the stairs,

Am G when your father found out what we did that night,

D C Am G and you told me you were scared.

D C All the glory when you ran outside,

Am G with your shirt tucked in and your shoes untied,

D C Am G and you told me not to follow you.

D / C / Am / G / D / C / Am / G

D C Sunday night when I cleaned the house,

Am G I find the card where you wrote it out,

D C Am G with the pictures of your mother.

D C On the floor at the great divide,

Am G With my shirt tucked in and my shoes untied,

D C Am G I am crying in the bathroom.

D C In the morning when you finally go,

Am G and the nurse runs in with her head hung low,

D C Am G and the cardinal hits the window.

D C In the morning in the winter shade,

Am G on the first of March on the holiday,

D C Am G I thought I saw you breathing.

D C All the glory that the Lord has made,

Am G and the complications when I see His face,

D C Am G in the morning in the window.

D C All the glory when he took our place,

Am G but he took my shoulders and he shook my face,
