The Weaver's Answer Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Weaver of [E]life, [C]let me look and [E]see
[A]The pattern of my [Bm]life gone by
[C#m]Shown on your [G]tapestry[A][Am]
Just for one second,
one glance upon your loom
The flower of my childhood could
appear within this room
[F]Does it of my [E]youth show
[C]tears of yester[E]day
[Am]Broken hearts with[Bm]in a heart as
[C#m]love first came my w[G]ay
[Am]

[Verse 2]
[Am]Did the lifeline patterns
change as I became a man
An added aura untold blends
as I asked for her hand
[F]Did your golden [E]needle sow
its [C]thread virginal [E]white
As [A]lovers we em[Bm]braced as one
[C#m]upon our w[G]edding n[Am]ight

[Verse 3]
[Am]
Did you capture all the joys,
the birth of our first son
The happiness of family made
a brother for the one
The [F]growing of [E]the brothers,
the [C]manliness that [Em]grew
[F]Is it there in [E]de tail, [C]is it there [E]to view
[A]Do the sparks [Bm]of life grow bright
as [C#m]one by one th[Bm]ey wed
To [A]live as fathers, hus[Bm]bands,
[C#m]apart from lives they've [G]led

[F][Dm][Am]

[Verse 4]
[Am]Are my lover's threads cut off
when aged she laid to rest
My sorrow blacking out a space
upon our woven crest
A [F]gathering for [E]the last time
[C]as her coffin slowly [Em]lain
[F]Ash to ashes, [E]dust to dust,
one day [C]we will re[E]gain
Does [A]it show the vis[Bm]its when
grand[C#m]children [Bm]on my knee
But [A]only hearing [Bm]laughter when age
[C#m]took my sight from me
[G][Am]

[Verse 5]
[Am]Lastly through these last few
years of loneliness maybe
Does by sight a shooting star
fade from your tapestry
[F]But wait, there in the dis[E]tance
your [C]loom I think [Em]I see
[F]Could it be that [E]after all my pray
[C]ers you've answered [E]me
[A]After days of [Bm]wondering I [C#m]see
the reason [Bm]why
[D]You've [A]kept it to this [Bm]minute [C#m]for
[G]I'm about to [Am]die
[C][Am]

[Verse 6]
[F]Weaver of [E]life, at [C]last now I can [E]see
The [A]pattern of my [Bm]life gone [C#m]by upon your
