Chords for Marc Cohn - Olana - lyrics

_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ I _ _ _ [C] say my final [G] masterpiece _ [F] was this house upon the [Em] hill, _
_ [C] high above a [G] great and mighty
[D] river. _ _ _ _ _
My [C] hand could not hold [G] the brush it, _ [F] yes I guess I lost my [Em] will. _
[C] You can't keep
[G] painting paradise _ [D] forever, _ _ _ _ _ oh [C] forever. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
From the Andes to _ [G] Niagara, _ [F] to where we stand [Em] today,
I [C] drew the great [G] creations of my [D] master. _ _ _ _
Till [C] the oil and [G] the canvas, _ [F] Lord I threw them all [Em] away. _ _
[C] And traded them for [G] stone [Em] and brick [D] and plaster, _ _ traded [Bm] them all for [C] you.
Till the wind blows
[C] and the little ice frozen [G] at my feet, _ traded them all for you.
Springtime come [E] and little
[G] water run [G] above the speed.
[F] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ She _ _ _
[E] _ [C] came to me one [G] night while I was [F] _ tossing in [Em] my dreams.
She _ [C] said she'd give my [G] family _ [D] protection.
_ _ [D] _ _ _
[Bm] I [C] recall the night I [G] died beneath her [F] _ arches and [Em] her beams. _
[C] I thanked her [A] for the shelter [Em]
and [D] the direction.
_ I was lost until [C] I found her.
She sang me down [Dm] on a [C] summertime town [G] and left me here.
I was lost until [C] I found her.
Down these hills, tired and low [G] for one more year. _ _ _
[F] Oh I've been from _ Jerusalem to [E] Rome.
_ [Am] _ _ _
[F] Now I'm floating through these rooms tonight [A] [Am] alone. _ _ _ _ _
[Em] [D] And looking [F] back on everything, _ [C] all
I ever [D] wanted was [C] a home. _ _ _ _
[G] Home. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _
_ [Em] _ _ _ I was [G] lost [C] until I found her. _ _ _
[G] How sweet the sound, how sweet the sound,
how [C] sweet the sound. _ _ _
_ They say my final masterpiece was this house _ [G] upon _ the hill.
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
