_ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ Prayer is [Em] the bell jar
_ [Bm] You [C] put over this [Bm] goodbye
_ [Em] I'd rather leave this embrace between [C] you and [Em] I
_ Let's lock out the bearded old [C] man
In the [G] nightgown [Em] he can tap against [G] the glass
But I'm [C] not coming out
I build bridges with these [G] [D] arms
[Em] I will not build a [D] fortress
In [C] the circle round the [Bm] kitchen table
I say [Em] my amen because I feel blessed
[C] Secretly hoping while [Bm] joining hands
That you [Em] can't feel my [D] trembling fingertips
[C] _
If [D] _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ I sign this piece of paper
Do I [C] sell my soul along with [G] my duties
And we [Em] won't put our [G] money where [C] your Catholic [G] mouth is
[Em] Even though the [G] teeth are long gone
[C] They're still gone beneath [Bm] the gums
[Em] And there's a lot of potential in a mighty [C] mighty organ
_ And they told us not [G] to clap
And we [Em] clap as loud as [D] we can
Because [C] the reverb [G] in those holy halls
[Em] Is like a long lost friend
_ [C] _
He [D] keeps setting the walls [Em] and comes all the way [Bm] back
Back again, [C] back, back again, [Bm] back, back [Em] again _
_ _ I want trees [G] instead of [C] gravestones
Nothing [Bm] to confess
[Em] I got a soft spot [G] for your ancient [C] books
I'm a [D] restarter
I [Em] got a music in [G] my ear
[C] From a long long [G] gone far [Em] far away
And [G] I'll still come in tune
[C] How could I ever believe every word it says to me

_ _ We follow our _ [D] own steps
[Em] While our shadows [G] keep watching [C] us
our [D] own [Em] steps
While our shadows [G] keep watching [C] us
our [D] own steps
[Em] While our shadows [D] keep watching [C] us
our [D] own steps
[Em] While our shadows [G] keep watching [C] us
our [D] own steps
[Em] While our shadows [G] keep watching [C] us
our [D] own steps
[Em] While our shadows [G] keep watching [C] us
The [G] wrong steps, [Em] while our shadows keep [D] watching [C] us
The [D] wrong step [Em] would be not to start [D] this _ [C] exodus
The [D] _ _ _ [Em] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[C] _ wrong _ [G] step [Em] would be not to start [C] this exodus _ _
