Hands on a Grain of Sand
by Amelia Curran
This isn't quite complete.
There are a few chords missing that
I can not quite nail down, but it is playable as written,
and I believe this is more accurate than the existing
version that is floating around right now.
Capo 6
Intro: Em, G, C
Em G C
Hounds are broodin' in my bones
C G
But I'm a good dog runnin' halfway home
D C
Hear the lonely promenade
G D
Come to nurse the tender terrways
CHORUS:
Em G C
All hands on a grain of sand
G D
Half smallest things are the high demand
D C
I can only serenade
G Em
And wait my turn to burn or fade
Em,G,C
Em G C
All the colours you can see
C G
Cover the borders of a masterpiece
D C
Time can paint the best of me
G D
Over the unclear eyes of memory
CHORUS
Em,G,C
D C
Cover love from sympathy
G D
Be my maker, set me free
Am C
Truer hearts could not contain
G D
How I cover love but I have not changed
Em G C
If I had the past undone
C G
Then I would give my heart to everyone
D C
Hounds are turnin', doves have flown
C G D
But I am a good dog runnin' halfway home
CHORUS
Outro: Em, G, C
