A Prayer to go Home

G             Em      B7

Mother if only one final time

B7

I might feel your power

B7

Surging through every fiber

B7                                                          E

While gently recalling this life of mine

G              Em                          B7

Then I’ll sense the ebb of time-less tide

Flowing by – Holy, Holy

Beloved if you would grant me

                 E

This last request… 

F

I would gift the memory of it

                  G               Gm

To these Hearts of Souls

All scattered round and staring in

                          C

Dismayed disbelief 

C                          B7

Looking at me brokenhearted

G                                            Em

Whose desperate deeds and soulful pleas

C              Am                   

For you to raise the level of the sea

B7

And free me from this misery it seems….

G

Have wrought their just reward

B7

In these darkened, storm-filled, cloud like

Shrouds of flailing teardrops

                                                    E

Raining from your Ancient Eyes

G                    Am

Oh Mother, please hear my call

B7

Mightiest of all

F                                   G                     Gm

Turn, as well, their prayers and pain

                                                                                  C

Into a heavenly colored Arcing Bow in the rain

Am   Em                B7

So it may sweep my fading soul

Into your celestial abode

From where I might glide

                                 E

Forever free and wide
