Capo 4
EmCG
Oh mother I'm scared to die
EmCG
Where, where do my good deeds lie
EmCG
Oh father I'm scared to live
EmCG
Takes more than I've got to give
EmCG
Oh sister my voice is weak
EmCG
Oh brother I long for sleep
EmCG
Oh hunger I know you well
EmCG
My cruel friend is a funeral bell
Em
And it rings in the day
C
And it rings in the evening
EmCG
Oh I could pray but it won??t stop you leaving
EmCG
Shadow in black you are grim from your reaping
EmCG
Oh can??t you spare just a day for the weeping
EmCG
Oh lover I know you??re there
EmCG
And I'd follow you anywhere
EmCG
Oh give me a hand to hold
EmCG
So that I may face the cold
Em
Cause it rings in the day
C
And it rings in the evening
EmCG
Oh I could pray but it won't stop you leaving
EmCG
Shadow in black you are grim from your reaping
EmCG
Oh can't you spare just a day for the weeping
Em
Cause it rings in the day
C
And it rings in the evening
EmCG
Oh I could pray but it won??t stop you leaving
EmCG
Shadow in black you are grim from your reaping
EmCG
Oh can??t you spare just a day for the weeping
EmCG
Oh can??t you spare just a day for the weeping
