Song in Stone Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]Songbirds in [G]the morning,
had my [D]head lost in [G]the tall trees
I knew well, well I would [D]say
Dreaming my [A]dry [G]weeds
[D]Stray light finds its [G]way to all of [D]us
Say something [G]green, it comes back
Sign light on my [D]lips,
let 'em kiss, [A]dark [G]leaves
Let the hands of the wrong prophets
[D]heal me all they [Em]should
Let the [G]wine of the poison
[D]Jesus says [Em]tastes good
And [A]all those trees [D]lay [G]down if you
[A]were [D]a bird and fell [Em]in to my arms

[Verse 2]
[D]If I wrote your song in [G]stone
If I [D]wore your wings back [G]home
Where the [D]dreams in the backwater [G]drown us far
[D]from home

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D][G][D][G][D][Em][G][D]
[Em]

[Verse 3]
[D]Give this to [G]the gray, it comes back [D]gold
Birds of [G]the morning, they [D]may [G]know
Know [D]more [G]than us,
[D]giving the[A]ir hymns for lif[G]e
Let the waves on the wrong water
[D]say what they will [Em]say
[G]While the wind and the broken
[F#m]branches [D]blow me [Em]away
[A]All tall tree lay [G]down if you were
[D]the bird who fell [Em]in to my[D] a[Em]rms

[Verse 4]
[D]I could write your song in sto[G]ne
I could [D]wear your wings back [G]home
Where the [D]dreams in the backwater
[G]drown us [Em]far f[G]rom [D]home[G]
