intro Am C Am G
Am        C          Am
Mother, listen to my heart.
Am         C          Am
Mother, listen to my heart,
G        C          Am         C
Just as one beat ends, another starts.
  G       Am         C         G
You can hear no matter where you are
Am         C         Am
Sister, hide our love away
C             Am        C
From the evil we both know.

[Chorus]
 G           C              Em    C
It can see us through these dark days,
  Em     C    G        C        Am
Though they seem to darken as I go.
G     C           Em                C      Em  C
Our love will see us through these dark, dark days
 Em
sister,
C          G                 Am
'Til it lights the way back home.
  Am         C       Am
Sister, hide our love away.
Am            C              Am  C   Am
It can turn the whole world upside down
 Am               C              Am
Shake it 'til the sky falls to the ground.
G        C          Am          C
We don't have to reap the fear they sow,
G         Am                C       G
Friends, as long as we hide our love away,
Am            C         Am
In the good they'll never know.

[Chorus]
 G           C              Em    C
It can see us through these dark days,
  Em     C    G        C        Am
Though they seem to darken as I go.
  G  C           Em                C      Em  C
Our love will see us through these dark, dark days
 Em
sister,
C          G                 Am
'Til it lights the way back home.
  Am         C       Am
Sister, hide our love away.
Am        C          Am
Mother, listen to my heart.
Am         C          Am
Mother, listen to my heart,
G        C          Am         C
Just as one beat ends, another starts.
  G       Am         C         G
You can hear no matter where you are
