Introduction: G
G
Aw, Lucy came to fill whatever hole was in my soul
G
Turned on a velvet station and out came rock 'n' roll
G
Then a river came down, oh, straight out of a cloud
G
Told me to sing about my soul
G
And I like where I am living
G
There are many pretty people
G
And we get to sit around
G
Oh, the chairs inside the steeple
G
And contemplate the air
G
And the prayers they throw up there
G
And watch them come back down
G
While others make it out
C
And when you get to feeling so bad
G
Sing a glad song
C
And when you get to feeling so mad
G
Sing a glad song
D C
And perhaps we'll meet again, my friend
G
Up off the weather
D C
Oh, you and me
G
Us together
G
Oh, Jacob came to ease
G
Whatever pain was in my knees
G
Said, "There's poetry in your soul
G
Wrap it up and let it go"
G
And our shoes were always broken
G
There never was enough token
G
Each coffin is a top, man
G
Each circle is a bottom
C
And when you get to feeling so bad
G
Honey, just like dirt
C
Take a glad, glad, glad, glad song
G
And put it right where it hurts
D C
And perhaps we'll meet again, my friend
G
Up off the weather
D
Oh, and these coughs
C
Oh, in our chest
G
Will have gotten better
D C
And perhaps we'll meet again, my friend
G
Up off the weather
D G
Oh, you and me
G
Us together
