Tuning: Standard
Verse:
Am Bm Em C
This story began before I was born
Am Bm Em
A childless woman cried sadly at home
Am Bm [ch]Bm/G[/ch] D C
Her maid gave birth to a child of her own
Am Bm Em
My father felt joy yet he was torn
Am Bm Em C
A conflict began one day at dawn
Am Bm Em
The maid took your hand and you were gone
Am Bm [ch]Bm/G[/ch] D C
To the desert you left, towards the unknown
Am Bm Em
I reckon you were so alone
Chorus:
Am Bm Em
God will hear you oh, my blood
Am Bm Em
For the years you roamed in dirt and mud
Am Bm D G
Forsaken like a nomad, deserted in the flood
F Bm Em
Forgive me, brother
You did nothing wrong and took all the shame
I suffered myself, yet I am to blame
The lord blessed us both, but we still fight and claim
That kid on the mountain, - what was his name?
Brother hear my plea tonight
I grew tired from these endless years of (Our) fight
From a tiny corner stone we may build our realm of light
Please hear me, brother
