Jackson Browne - Our lady of the well

It is a ^Gdance we do in silence Far below this morning ^Csun You in ^Cyour life, me in mine We have be^Ggun Here we ^Gstand and without speaking Draw the water from the ^Cwell And ^Cstare beyond the ^Gplains To ^G/F#where the ^G/Emountains ^Dlie so ^Cstill

But it's a ^Glong ^Cway that I have ^Gcome Across the sand to find this ^Ampeace among your people in the ^Csun Where the families work the ^Gland as ^Bmthey have always ^Emdone Oh it's so ^Amfar the other ^Cway my country's ^Ggone ^C

Across my ^Ghome has grown the shadow Of a cruel and senseless ^Chand Though in ^Csome strong hearts The love and truth ^Gremain And it has ^Gtaken me this distance And a ^Gwoman's smile to ^Clearn That my ^Cheart remains ^Gamong them^G/F# And to ^G/Ethem I ^Dmust return^C

But it's a ^Glong ^Cway that I have ^Gcome Across the ^Gsand to find you ^Amhere among these people in the ^Csun Where your children will be ^Gborn You'll ^Bmwatch them as they ^Emrun Oh it's so ^Amfar the other ^Cway my life has ^Ggone

If you ^Dlook for me, Maria You will ^Cfind me in the shade Wide aw^Gake or^D/F# in a d^Emream It's hard to ^Bmtell-- ^C If you ^Dcome to me, Maria I will ^Cshow you what I've made It's a ^Gpicture for our ^Flady of the ^Cwell
