Grace - The Choir
Speckled Bird
[Em]Screamin' at the[D] newsman,
[A]Tellin' him to take it back.
[C]I'll sue him if he w[G]on't retract.
[Em]Cryin' to the h[D]angman,
[A/C#]Beggin' him to r[A]ender slack.
[C]If I could I w[G]ould go back.[Gsus4][G]
Will you e[Gsus4]xtend me,[G]
Will you e[Gsus4]xtend m[G]e gr[D]ace.
Just a l[C]ittle grace.
Will you e[Gsus4]xtend me,[G]
Will you e[Gsus4]xtend m[G]e gr[D]ace.
Just a l[C]ittle grace.
Were you talkin' to the shrubbery
Did you cut the roses down
Someone oughta till that ground
You thought I had a pure heart, well
I thought you were an angel, girl
Mercy is the silver pearl
Will you extend me
Will you extend me grace
Just a little grace...
[A]My mother d[D]eems me ever dear
[A]I'm less a l[D]iar than sincere
When you cut me in the alley-way
You don't have to turn that knife
I'll suffer in the after life
Prayin' to the Father
Sorry, did I grieve the Ghost
C G
You're the one I love the most
repeat chorus
starting at this C chord there is one bar of 5/4,
then one of 4/4, leading then into the chorus.
