^F#mOglethorpe was around this place some ^Ahundred fifty^E years ^F#mSince a Union bullet hit its mark, and his ^Ateenaged heart it ^Epierced ^AYears ago a young girl ^C#mlived here, ^Ashe became his ^C#mfriend But ^Bwhen their family moved away their ^Afriendship had to ^Eend

^F#mWhen we bought this house the neighbors ^Acame and talked ^Eabout him ^F#mThough we've not heard or seen a thing, I ^Ahope he comes ^Eagain I'd ^Alike to ask him lots of ^C#mthings, and ^Ahear the way he ^C#mtalks ^BDescribing local battle scenes on some ^Aslow morning ^Ewalk

^F#mThe room I write in used to be a ^Atwo car ^Egarage A ^F#mnineteen fifties chrome and fin, ^Awhite wall tired ^Emontage Years ^Alater it became a ^C#mchurch, and they ^Amoved an organ ^C#min And these ^Bwalls would shake with holy songs and ^Asermons against ^Esin

I ^F#mlike to think this place was made for the ^Akind of work I ^Edo I'll ^F#mtry to be ready when the ^Aspirit comes back ^Ethrough I'll ^Awrite it down and ^C#msort it out and ^Amake it fairly ^C#mrhyme And ^F#mmarry it to melody of the ^Ahighest flying ^Ekind

I ^F#mwant to try be to a friend to ^Asouls that cannot ^Erest I ^F#mwould not blame their anger, don't ^Aclaim to know what's ^Ebest But ^Asouls are all connected ^C#mlike the ^Abranches on a ^C#mtree And ^Bthings they see beyond the grave might ^Ahelp out you and ^Eme
