Love Song for a Prairie Fire Lyrics & Tabs by Jayber Crow
Love Song for a Prairie Fire
guitar chords lyrics
The drought, it dried up everything,
The ground was kissed by lightning.
Fire was wild and moving fast,
Burnin' shrubs and all the grass.
Now the ground is bare, but don't you weep
'Cause prairie roots are runnin' deep.
The smoke and seeds are scatterèd
The prairie fire prepares a bed.
Whoa-oh
La da da de dum
Oh, the sunlight shining in the morning,
See the seeds, the soil so warm, my darlin',
Hush, I hear them singing alleluia,
I know I know they sing their morning hymn
As the day begins
Hush, I hear them singing alleluia,
I know I know they sing their morning hymn
As the day begins
?
The wind and heat and stems conspire,
Smoke and flames arising higher,
Lifted voices like a choir,
I can love a prairie fire.
