Gather the Hands - Xavier Rudd
[Intro]
    Dm      Am      C      Gx2
[Verse 1]
DmShe was delivered by the Amgrace of his hands
CKindness, relentless, Gwired to be shared
DmPeople stood awkwardly and Amgazed across the room
She Cwalked with such elegance in the Gplaces that she knew
[Verse 2]
DmFlawlessness, contagious, comAmpassionate, engagement
In these Chands I belong, in these Ghands you belong
DmFoolish, segregation, scars Amdeep beneath the skin
Of the Cblack man and the white man and Geveryone in between
[Interlude]
    Dm      Am      C      Gx2
[Verse 3]
Forever Dmsacred was the feminine, right Amdown to the final hour
When every Cbaby to be taken was to be Gpoisoned to be soured
Bodies Dmturning in their graves and spirits Amwaiting to go home
DisconCnected from their holy place when the muGseum stole their bones
[Verse 4]
Cry Dmfreedom, still bleeding, still Amwaiting for a reason
Throw these Carms around the world, throw these Garms around the world
Through the Dmeye of a needle we Amtried to move the stone
So Cheavy from its history, of Gshame and blood and bone
[Interlude]
C    G    F    C  G
[Chorus]
Gather the Chands to move the stone
Gather the Ghands to move the stone
Sing it Fup to the heavens
Let it Crain down on us aGll
(Play x6)
[Outro]
Dm    Am    C    G
Through the Dmeye of a needle we Amtried to move the stone
So Cheavy from its history, of Gshame and blood and bone
