St.
Francis walking on the water, all his lambs have gone to slaughter
[D] And all the creatures who [C] receive his grace, you [G] can see them all in [D] his haggard face
[G] St.
Francis begging at your doorway, you want to let him in but what will the neighbors say?
[D] And you know you can't go on [C] but you can't give up, [G] and he answers you with [D] his begging cup
[G] St.
Francis sitting at your table, a cup of tea among the faithful
[D] Behind a wall that's [C] made of little lies, [G] much to your surprise, [D] you start to cry
[G]
[D] By these wounds you [C] will be whole again, [G] by these signs you [D] will know
You'll feel a stirring in your [C] soul, [Em] till sweet amnesia takes a [F]
hold
[C] [G]
St.
Francis sleeping in the meadow, his halo is a raven's shadow
[C] And [D]

[D] Oh, the sparrow's tears, while we sleep and dream [C] of heaven's gates
[G] Down here on earth, [D] the old man
