Whispering Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][D][F][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Whisper[D]ing
Hear the [F]ghosts in the [Am]moonlight
Sorrow doing [D]a new dance
Through [F]their bone, through [G]their skin
[Am]Listen

[Verse 2]
[D]ing
To [F]the souls in the fool's [Am]night
Fumbling mutely with [D]their rude hands
And there's [F]heartache [G]without end

[Verse 3]
See [F]the father bent in [Am]grief
[C]The mother dressed in [D]mourning
Sister [F]crumbles,
and [Am]the neighbors grumble
The preach[C]er issues warnings
[D]

[Verse 4]
[Am]History[D]
[F]Little miss didn't do [Am]right[F]
[Am]Went and ruined all [D]the true plans
Such a [F]shame. Such [Am]a sin.

[Interlude 1]
[D][F][Am][D][F]
[A]

[Verse 5]
Had a [G]sweetheart on his [Bm]knees
So [D]faithful and ador[E]ing
And [G]he touched me. And I [Bm]let him love me.
So [D]let that be my story
[E]

[Verse 6]
[Bm]Listening[E]
For [G]the hope, for the new [Bm]life
Something [E]beautiful, a new chance
Hear its [G]whispering
[Bm]There again
