Chords Used: D F#m Bm Em A
Intro: D
Let's [D]retire to our knees
With our books as our graces
And [F#m]kindly machines
Of concern take our places
Grow [Bm]motorized trees
Build robotic faces
Who [F#m]smile on command
Who can mind their own business
We'll [Em]hold human hands
And rest human [A]feet
And what [D]there shall we yield
In our own poor devotions?
That [F#m]pearl from the field
Cast back home to the ocean
Would you [Bm]cast out my fears
Or at least fix some tea
In our [F#m]cabbage white kingdoms
Of kings of no history
You can [Em]pack up your things
I would still wear your [A]ring
In the [D]Chapelcross Towns
Of the battlescared mornings
Fake [F#m]leaves rustling sounds
Lay rattlesnake warnings
From our [Bm]homes underground
You can still hear them moaning
Don't [F#m]cheat on your taxes
But as for your spouses
Dark [Em]secrets come out
With comma or [A]without
When the [D]tired young knees
Of your father walked out
To the [F#m]lord I disbelieve
But increase thou my doubt
He sat [D]down in the leaflessness
A thousand more times
I went [F#m]back on my word
But I won't go back this time
Neither [Bm]bondsman nor free
But a newspaper salesmen
Who [F#m]moves about words
(e.g. 'death do us part')
If our [Em]prayers are unheard
?Well our prayers are [A]unheard.
