Lasting Hymn - The Bridge 
Standard tuning - Capo 2nd - Strum like the recording
G C G G
Verse 1
Gsame old Cstory came and GwentG  
Ggone like the words it Cwasted, and told as the Gtime it spentG  
like the Cones passing by all Cforgotten for why or Emwhat they meantEm  
just a Dblank page that still Cremains, and a lastinGg hymn
   C  G  G
Verse 2
Ggone, she's Cgone, her wind has GblownG  
Gfurther away from the Cwinters that made her feel Gso aloneG  
and aCll she remembers of Cdistant Decembers chiEmlled to the bone Em  
can just Dfade like the old false Cloves 
for she hears a Ctune calling like a Choly Emmorning Amsong
Chorus
say my GpeaCce, say my GgloCry, say my GlovCe say my DsonCg
say my GpeaCce, say my GgloCry, say my GlovCe said my Dso o Cnnng
G C G G
Verse 3
Gwhere oh Cwhere did your songbird Gfly
Geffortlessly on the Cseven great seas and the Gwailing sky
is she Csleeping or alone and weeping and wEmondering why
through the Dsilence a song can be Cborn Cand EmsurvAmive D  
Verse 4
but somehwere she hears that sweet reprise
calling like a long lost love with sleep upon his weary eyes
and complete disregard for the longwinded hardships and gone goodbyes
for the love that remains is clear as that lasting hymn
singin like a holy morning song
Chorus
Bridge
   Em  Djust like the morning Gbells tolling
and the EmdreamDs that were restlesssly Emstolen
and the Bmlight still Cshining
on the Emsouls that were broken Dbefore 
and a voice is Ccalling
Dcalling theGm home, Ccalling them Ghome
Verse 5
after all the tides have tamed
silences broken and the stories half spoken but yet unnamed
i'll be painfully sure of the ones that endure and are unashamed
as the breath of a lasting hymn so soft and true and mercifully
calling back again 
Chorus Jam (finger pickin' good)
tHE eND
Great tune  ... enjoy ...
