Sheep

C Em C Em

[Verse]
Em                     F
Born in sheep's blood plain and 
simple
Em                 F
Washed out of my mother's temple
Em              F
All around I heard them laughing
      Em    F         Bm     
As father sheep had stood there 
     Esus4   Em6 Em7
calving

Em                       F
Black they were, with white eyes 
gleaming
 Em               F
Right in heaven life was seeming
 Em                F
Brittle wind blew snow upon me
      Em     F        Bm        
I got blanketed all white and 
Esus4
frosty

[Bridge]
Bm             Em
In my time I grew and killed them

Bm            Em
Or out of memory I willed them
 Bm              Em
And willed in a greater history
 Am                      Esus4
Out of massacre and mystery

 Bm               Em
Was no longer wealthy, woolly
 D             Em
Nor anything I could grasp fully
 C                   G
Someone rush to re-inject me
  Bm                        Esus4
God of gods, won't you protect me?

[Verse]
  Em                 F
Fixed my face and marching onward
   Em              F
Marching running ever forward
  Em               F
Buildings were a bloody vessel
  Em   F    Bm        Esus4
Edging me below the trestle

 Em                 F
There in coal and whitened gravel
 Em                   F
I built a shield of wooden baffle
  Em                 F
Inside of which I raised a fire
 Em     F      Bm    Esus4
So I could tonight retire

 F             C      Bm         
Everyone will tell you it's evil 
   Em
to be
F                 C           Bm
A free-thinking pecker like 
        Em
bonnie old me
 F               C         Bm    
But I'll flex my armies and blow 
        Em
out my gut
 F                  C       Bm   
And prove I'll be loved by any 
    Em
old slut

  C                G           Bm
Look here in my wallet, it's 
         Em
loaded and true
  C             G             Bm 
And now I can leave here and go 
         Em
and find you
