Intro: C Fm/C  Db/Ab  Eb+9/Bb

 C                        F         G  C
The church bells ring out morning glory
                     F          G     C
When summer bends to the winter's rage
 Am    F                      G   C
Emily walks through the cemetery
 Am        F             G     C  F  C
Passed a dog in an unmarked grave
 C                F            G    C
The old girl hobbles, nylons sagging
                    F           G   C
Talks to her sisters in the ground
 Am      F            G              C
I saw a lie in the mirror this morning
 Am         F              G  Am  G/B
I heard a prophesy all around
       F/C C              Fm/C
And Emily they come and go
            Db/Ab     Eb/Bb        F6
The shadows     and the distant sounds
     F/C   C            Fm/C
But Emily don't be afraid
                        Db/Ab  Eb/Bb     F6
When the weight of angels weighs you down
Emily prays to a faded hero
In a little frame clutched to her gown
Hears the voice of promise in his memory
Tonight's the night they let the ladder down
In a cage sits a gold canary
By a wicker chair and a rosewood loom
As a soul ascends abord the evening
Canary sings to an empty room
