Haile Selassie Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Pilgrim across the water
[A]We are the same, [G]brother
Hitchhiking back [A]to Zion
[G]Holding our tears as [A]we flip the album
[D]What if this leads to ruin?
You [A]got a soul, [G]use it
All this despair [A]forgiven
[G]Rolling away [A]on a wheel of sevens
Seems [D]like the Queen of Sheba
[A]Voice through a blown speaker
[G]One drop and bubbling [A]Leslie
[G]Calling me home [A]like Haile
[Bm]Selassie
[D][Bm][G][Bm][A]

[Verse 2]
Pil[D]grim beside the fire
[A]Its been a long [D]winter[G]
We got a lot [A]in common
Cov[G]er our heads as [A]they split the atom
[D]All of our days are numbered
[A]I take in some comfort i[G]n knowing
the wave [A]has crested
[G]Knowing I don't have [A]to be an exception
Chil[D]dren they fill the bleachers
[A]One is the next Caesar
[G]Keep all their minds [A]collected
[G]Until it comes
Until it [A]comes[Em]
Hide the Omega [G]day
In [D]plain sight
Too good [A]to be [G]true[A]

[Verse 3]
I've [D]seen, I've [A]seen,
[G]I've seen str[Em]anger things, man
[D]I've seen, [A]I've seen [D]that
[G]tree of [A]smoke[D]
I've seen, [A]I've seen,
[G]I've seen [Em]stranger things [D]happen
[A]Hap[G]pen before
[D][A][G][D][A][D][A][G][A][Esus4]

[Verse 4]
[D]Pilgrim upon the mountain
[A]Bare foot and still climbing
[G]Filling the book of [A]hours
[G]Day after day in the [A]filth and squalor
[D]We are the chosen [A]people[D]
[A]Safe from the next evil
[G]One Love! Magnetic [A]memory
[G]Reel after reel, [A]spinning within [Em]me
I had the wildest [G]dream last [D]night
I was [A]swimming [G]with you in [Em]that Cenote the
Heavens [G]made with black [D]fire
Just [A]woke up too [G]soon[A]

[Verse 5]
[D]I've seen, [A]I've seen,
[G]I've seen [Em]stranger things, man
[D]I've seen, [A]I've seen that [G]tree [A]of smoke
I've [D]seen, I've seen,
[A]I've seen [G]stranger thi[Em]ngs hap[D]pen[A]
[G]Happen before
[D][A][G][A][D][A][G][A][Esus4][A]

[Verse 6]
[D]I've seen,
I've seen, [G]I've seen [Em]stranger things, man
[D]I've seen,
[A]I've seen that [G]tree of [A]smoke
I've [D]seen, [Bm]I've seen[A],
[G]I've seen str[Em]anger things hap[D]pen[A]
[G]Happen before
[D]
