[Gm]
[G]
You fell from the sky, crash-landed in a field near the river Ader.
Flowers sprang from the ground, lambs burst from the wounds of their mothers.
[Gm] In a hole beneath [G] a bridge, you convalesced, you fashioned masks of clay and twigs.
[Eb] You cried beneath [G] the dripping trees, a ghost song lodged in the throat of a mermaid.
[Gm]
[G] My voice, I [C] am calling [Gm] you.
[G]
You're a young man waking, covered in blood that is not yours.
You're a woman in a yellow dress, surrounded by a charm of hummingbirds.
You're a young girl, full of forbidden energy, flickering in the gloom.
You're a drug addict lying on your back in a Tijuana hotel room.
With my voice, I [A] am calling [G] [Gm] you.
With my voice, I [C] am [G] calling you.
You're an African doctor, harvesting tear ducts.
You believe in God, but you get no special dispensation for this belief now.
You're an old man sitting by a fire, hear the mist rolling off the sea.
[Eb] [G] You're a distant memory in the mind of your creator, don't you see?
With [Gm] my voice, I [F] am [G] calling you.
[Gm] With my voice, I [C] am [Gm] calling you.
[G]
Let us sit together until the moment comes.
With [Gm] my voice, I [C] am calling [Gm] you.
[G] Let us sit together in the [C] dark [G] until the moment comes.
[Gm] With my voice, [C] I am [G] calling you.
With [Gm] my voice, [C] I am [Gm] calling you.
[G] With [Bb] my voice, [Gm] I [F] am [G] [Eb] calling [G] you.
With [Gm] my voice, [C] I am [G] [Gm] calling you.
