I Heard You Singing Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]Word[D]s - [G]Ro[D]bert
[Em]Hunt[D]er[G]
[A]Mu [D]sic [Em]- David Freib[D]erg
I heard you [A]singing

[Verse 2]
[C]
What were you singing
when the [G]people got right?
[Bm]Were you singing Stand and Deliver?
Or was it Down by [A]the River[D]?
Were you singing [A]a fine old
tune like [C]Gone to [G]Glory?
[Bm]Laying it down with grace and power
Long about the midnight [G]hour
I [A]heard the [D]people all singing

[Verse 3]
[Em]
Like they'd never [D]sung before
[A]All ove[F#m]r the coun[Bm]try
[Em]Who could help but stand beside you?

[Verse 4]
Hello, [Bm]hello - is [D]there [A]anybody here?
My [C]knuckles are sore from
[G]rapping all day
[Bm]I said: Give me one more chance
I'd do it for you if I [D]had your way
[A]If I had your way[C][G]

[Verse 5]
[Bm]What do I know? What do I see?
Don't know nothing but
the name of the game
[D]It's hig[A]h- card draw with eve[D]rything wild
[Em]You bet your life like anyon[D]e's child
[A]What else wou[D]ld you want
[Em]to do?
[Bm]

[Verse 6]
[F#m]
[Bm]I heard the people all singing
Like they [F#m]never sun[E]g bef[F#m]ore
[Bm]Singing in key and strumming
[F#m]Everything they heard from you
Hello, [Em]hel lo, hello, hello [D]... goodbye
[G]Looking back across the years

[Verse 7]
[D]Other matters disappear
[Em]In the murmur I can hear
[D]Familiar voices loud and clear
[G]Hello, hello, hello,
hello [A]...[D]good[Em]bye[D]
I heard you [A]singing

[Verse 8]
[C]
Like one last song in
[G]the middle of the night
[Bm]Were you singing in tongues of fire
Or was it knots of an[A]ger?

[Verse 9]
[D]Were you singing a fin[A]e old tune like
[C]Love Me, Love Me, Love [G]Me Only?
[Bm]Were you caught btween the
curtains

[Verse 10]
Thinking this was too uncertain?
[G]Remember[A] ... the peo[D]ple were singing
[Em]Like they never sung[D] before
[A]All over the cou[D]ntry
[Em]Did you love the way they loved you?

[Verse 11]
[Em]Ain't [Bm]no knocker on the last big door
Just push on the [F#m]panel and walk on in
[Bm]Hello, hello, is there anybody here
But a [F#m]two- bit h[Em]igh and a busted mirror?
[Bm]Hello, hello - is anybody here?
My tongue [F#m]is so sore [F#]from
rapping all [F#m]day
[Em][D]

[Verse 12]
[G]Sunshine in the dead on night
[D]I know that can't be right
[Em]Could it be? I don't know
[D]But it never done that thing before
[G]So close to my own back door
[A]It got me wondering what to do
[D]And the only thing was
[Em]to come and tell you
[D]Be [A]cau[C]se - I[G][Bm][A]
heard [G]you singing - I [A]heard [B]you
