Aldous Harding - Small bones of courage

^AmWe walk ^Calone now with h^Der ^AmThe dogs have ^Cbroken and ^Dturned ^DmFeed these ^Amwords to the ^Gwind ^DmSo they may ^Amone day ^Greturn

^AmThere's little ^Cleft for us at ^Dall ^AmOur minds are ^Copen and ^Dlearned ^DmNever in your days will you ^Amfind a pair so ^Gburned ^DmAnd we slept with our ^Ambacks against the ^Gweather

^AmAs we ^Clay on wet ^Dstones ^AmBefore the ^Cfire's ^Dedge ^DmWe swore to never eat from ^Amthose bleeding hands ^Gagain ^DmAnd we sang the words ^Amtogether in the ^Gembers

^Amooh ^{C D Dm}ooh ^{Am G}

^AmNot a word, little widow, of the ^Cman I was ^Dbefore ^AmFor the only frailness ^Cleft is in the ^Dnight ^DmWhen I cannot find the silver ^Amdesign to take your ^Glife ^DmAnd the shadows are too ^Amdeep to find the ^Glight

^AmThey do not reach the ^Csmall bones of c^Dourage ^Dm'Stead left to the light by the ^Amsmall bones of ^Gcourage

^AmThere is a train that moves ^Cthrough the ^Dvalley ^AmIts path is ^Ccrooked and ^Dtied ^DmWe're told we are but travellers ^Amupon its hellish ^Gride ^DmBut the coal will not burn ^Amlonger than we will ^Geat

^AmStill he's robbed the fire by the ^Csmall bones of ^Dcourage ^AmScratch down the lace and bare your naked ^Cbreast unto the ^Dsun ^DmLet the ghosts scream at the ^Amlightning in your ^Geyes ^DmTurn all the horses gold, and watch them ^Amflee toward the ^Glife ^DmWhere live the guardians of ^Ammercy and the ^Gmind

^AmLed through the fire by the ^Csmall bones of ^Dcourage ^DmLed through the fire by the ^Amsmall bones of ^Gcourage

^Amooh ^{C D Dm}ooh ^{Am G}

^AmThere is little ^Cleft for us at ^Dall ^AmOur minds are ^Copen and ^Dlearned ^DmNever in your days will you ^Amfind a pair so ^Gburned ^DmAnd we slept with our ^Ambacks against the ^Gweather
