A Song For Jill

Tom: Em

  Em          C
  I saw you on mountain
  Em               C
  I met you by the stream
  Em              G
  And I terrified at your sight
     C         D
  A lion after me
      Em              C
  You asked if I was thirsty
    Em               C
  I said “If I don't drink
          Em         G
  I will surely die here be dry
   C            D
  Lying by the stream”
    Em                       C
  He said, “Dear child, come farther
      Em           C
  For this the only stream
            Em
  That will bring you life
  G         C              D
  My supply is all You will need
            Em             C
  He didn’t promise not to harm me
   Em                       C
  He said, “I'll do no such thing
        Em
  For I am the law
      G              C
  And in my jaw I've swallowed men, and mountains
         D
  and kings.”

       Em
  It is so
           C        G                Em
  There is only one blood could have done
               D
  What I have done
          Em
  And I know
         C   G          Em
  As so many do you may run
      D              C
  But I am your only hope
                    G                            Em
  There is only one blood could have done
              D
  What I have done
        Em
  It is so
         C         G           Em
  I am justice and wrath, I am love
      D              C
  But I am your only hope

  Em              G     Em               C
  I am in the light, I am in the shade
  Em               G     Em               C
  I am in the wind, I am in the waves
