before you came Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]fore you [Am]came

[Verse 2]
I [Em]dreamed... that I was riding
in [Am]a South Dakota field
and the sweet [C]grass whispered
[D]to me as I [Em]rode
oh, the sun it was at midday
[Am]it shown hot across my face
and [D]our land lay still in [C]grace
yes, a [B]crystal silent place
before [Am]you c[Em]ame
[Esus4][Em][C]

[Verse 3]
Two [Em]of my closest brothers
they were [Am]riding by my side
and we [C]watched a golden [D]eagle
flying [Am]circles [C]in the[Em] sky

[Verse 4]
and we [Em]smiled as our eyes met
for our [Am]joy, we could not hide
yes, we [D]loved to hunt [C]and ride
it was [Bm]good [B]to be alive
before you [Esus4]came[Em]

[Verse 5]
[Am]brother, take my hand and we
will walk this magic land
[D]toget[Em]her
[Am]sister, look on high and you will see
that storms are building in
your [Em]skies[Esus4]
woh, [Em]do you wonder [B]why?

[Verse 6]
and [Em]when the sun was dying
we had [Am]reached the sacred hills
and [C]the sky it caught on [D]fire
and [C]all the [B]land was [Em]still

[Verse 7]
it was [Em]here all wrapped in blankets
[Am]in our younger days
that [D]we fasted and we [C]listened
oh [B]the night would bring us visions
before [Am]you came
[Em][Esus4][Em]

[Verse 8]
[Am]Brother, take my hand
for we must hold our father's
[D]land to[Em]gether
[Am]Sister, look around
and you will see the scars of
battle on [D]this [Em]ground[Esus4]
Wo[Em]h, do you hear t[B]he sound?

[Verse 9]
[Em]I dreamed... that I was riding
in [Am]a South Dakota field
And, [C]the sweet grass
whispered [B]to me as [Em]I rode
oh the sun it was at midday
it [Am]shown hot across my face
and our [D]land lay still in [C]grace
is a [B]crystal silent place

[Verse 10]
Before [B]you [Em]came...
