ON THE ROAD TO CALVARY by Richie Havens 6th trac on Wishing Well CD
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
I saw St.Christopher walking downtown on main,
A Amaj7 Dsus2 E,Esus4,E7
with Black Madonna fingers holding the flame,
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
I saw an eagle rise,right out of the blue
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
I heard a car crash,it reminded me of you.
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
I saw a baby starve in South Africa,
A Amaj7,Dsus2 E,Esus4,E7
too weak to cry,her tears rolled down into straw.
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
I saw an orphan give a vagabond try,
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
just at that moment I realized.
A C#m,D A
You carry me across the smiling river,
A C#m D E,Esus4,E7
You lift me up above the raging sea,
A C#m D A
You bring me home this love that you deliver,
A C#m
straight to my back porch
D A
on the road to Calvary.
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
I seen a rich man with his bracelets of gold.
A Amaj7 Dsus2 E,Esus4,E7
Four cars and a yacht and a mistress untold.
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
Somewhere the restless wind blows out to sea,
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
somewhere there is a place for you and for me.
A C#m,D A
You carry me across the smiling river,
A C#m,D E,Esus4,E7
you lift me up above the raging sea,
A C#m D A
you bring me home this love that you deliver.
A C#m
Straight to my back porch
D A
on the road to Calvary.
A C#m
Straight to my back porch
D A
on the road to calvary.
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
So if you wondering where I was last night,
A Amaj7 Dsus2 E,Esus4,E7
well, Black Madonna, yea, She gave me the light.
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
I guess it’s not much more that I have to say,
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
Just tell St.Christopher we’re all on our way,
A Amaj7 Dsus2 A
tell St.Christopher we’re all on our way.
A Em6/C# A
We’re all on our way.
