[Verse 1]

On the day when

the weight deadens

on your shoulders

Em C

and you stumble,

Am Em

may the clay dance

to balance you.

[Verse 2]

And when your eyes

freeze behind

Em C

the grey window

Am Em

and the ghost of loss

Dsus D

gets into you,

may a flock of colours,

indigo, red, green

and azure blue,

come to awaken in you

C G

a meadow of delight

D G

a meadow of delight.

[Verse 3]

When the canvas frays

in the currach of thought

Em C

and a stain of ocean

Am Em Dsus D

blackens beneath you,

C G

may there come across the waters

C G

a path of yellow moonlight

C G

to bring you safely home

D G

to bring you safely home.

[Verse 4]

May the nourishment of the earth be yours,

And so may a slow

of love around you,

And so may a slow

wind work these words

Em C

of love around you,

Am Em

an invisible cloak

Dsus D G

to mind your life.
