For the intro just repeat Am a few times
[Am]at night we crossed the border following a Black robe
to the [Em]edge of the reservation to Cataldo Mission
where the [Am]saints and all the martyrs look down on dying converts
what [Em]makes the water holy, she says, is that it's the closest thing to [F]rain
[Am]I stole a mule from Anthony I helped Anne up upon it
and we [Em]rode to Coeur d'Alene past Harrison and Wallace
they were [Am]blasting out the tunnels making way for the light of learning
when [Em]Jesus comes a'calling, she said, he's coming 'round the mountain on a
[F]train[C]
[F]it's my home last night I dreamt that I grew wi[C]ngs
I found a p[G]lace where they could hear me when I s[Am]ing
[Am]we floated on to Hanford on a lumber boat up river
past the f[Em]isheries and milltowns like a stretch of future graveyards
she was [Am]driven to distraction said, I wonder what will happen
when they [Em]find out they're mistaken and the land is too changed to ever
[F]change
[Am]we waded through the marketplace someone's ship had come in
there was [Em]silver and begonias dynamite and cattle
there were [Am]hearts as big as apples and apples in the shape of Mary's h[Em]eart
I said, inside this gilded cage a songbird always looks so
p[F]lain[C]
[F]it's my home last night I dreamt that I grew wi[C]ngs
I found a p[G]lace where they could hear me when I [Am]sing

[Am]and so they came with cameras breaking through the morning mist
[Em]press and businessmen tycoons Episcopal philanthropists
l[Am]ost in their appraisal of the body of a woman
[Em]but all we saw were lowlands clouds clung to mountains without s[F]trings
[Am]at last we saw some people
[Am]at last we saw some people
[Am]at last we saw some people huddled up against
the [Em]rain that was descending like railroad spikes and hammers
they were [Am]headed for the border walking and then running
then they were [Em]gone into the fog but Anne said underneath the jackets she
saw w[F]ings.
