Sweet Chariot
Charlotte Martin
Text File
((VERSE))
E F# G#m F#
Ode to joy, my lover boy's speaking in
E F# G#m F#
tongues-And the sky's bleeding gray.................
E F# G#m B
Now I pull my bag o' prayers out
C#sus C# Em
I hope to find one to save the day
And he judged my love, my lust
My taste with the straightest face
As I crumple up inside
A papier-mache, a shell with no name
((CHORUS))
E F# G#m F#
Sweet..............chariot
E B G#m A
Come, come, take me away from my
E F# G#m F#
fear- Sweet......chariot
E B G#m A
Come, I have to get out of here
And he took me further than I wanted to go
Underneath his shoe
And it leaves me hungry for a touch I can't feel
A touch he won't do
And I thought the circle, it had an end
I'm old enough to know
My denial is how we began and how we will end
And now that I know
Sweet chariot
Come, come, take me away from my fear
Sweet chariot
Come, I have to get out of here
((BRIDGE))
D A F#m G
Oh,....the blood that's in my
D A F#m G
veins- So cold and frozen from the
D A F#m G F
stings- Oh, it comes and goes in waves
F E F# G#m F#................
Am I really here?...................................................
(Repeat verse chords once)
Sweet chariot
Come, come, take me away from my fear
Sweet chariot
Can we leave him a trail of my tears?
Sweet chariot
It's been, it's been the longest of years
Sweet chariot
Come, I have to get out of here
