Tom Russell - Guadalupe CAPO: 4th Fret [Intro] D C G [Verse 1] There are ghosts out in the rain tonight

High up in those ancient ^Amtrees And I have given up with^Dout a fight Another blind fool on ^Ghis knees

And all the gods that I've abandoned

Begin to speak in simple ^Amtongue And, suddenly, I've ^Dcome to know That there are no roads left to ^Grun

[Verse 2] Now it's the hour of dogs a-barking

That's what the old ones used to ^Amsay It's first light, or it's ^Dsundown Before the children cease their ^Gplay

And when the mountains glow like mission wine

Or turn grey like a Spanish ^Amroan Ten thousand eyes will ^Dstop to worship Then turn away, and head for ^Ghome

[Chorus]

And she is reaching out her ^Carms tonight And, yes, my poverty is ^Greal I pray roses shall rain ^Amdown again ^D From Guadalupe, on her ^Ghill And, who am I to doubt these mys^Cteries Cured in centuries of ^Gblood, and candle smoke? I am the least of all your pil^Amgrims here ^D But I am most in need of ^Ghope

[Instrumental] G Am D G [Verse 3]

She appeared to Juan Di^Gego She left her image on his ^Amcape Five hundred years of ^Dsorrow Cannot destroy their deepest ^Gfaith

So, here I am, your ragged disbeliever

A doubting Thomas drowns in ^Amtears As I watch your church sink ^Dthrough the earth Like a heart worn down through f^Gear

[Chorus]

[Outro] D C G
