Mary Black - Golden Thread
[Intro]
G C G C
[Verse 1]
D G
I looked into a mirror made of lines
C D C G
With tiny symbols here and there to make the image mine
D Am D Am
A woman stood and painted and showed me what to find
C D G C G
The different parts, the fire, the air and where my life would climb
C G C D D7
And where it joins another and what would always bind
[Chorus]
G C
It's a golden thread to hold you all of my days
G C
Hold my head against you, now and for always
G C
Sewn me up, shown us a long, long time
D G
Makes you my life
C D G
Makes you my life
[Verse 2]
C D G
The moving finger writes and goes away
C D C G
I'm weighed upon a balance here and I'm told that I can stay
D Am D Am
The kettle heats, the water speaks up, says I'm not alone
C D G C G
My whole life is a tapestry and hanging in my home__
C G C D D7
And here it joins another by what will always bind
[Chorus]
G C
It's a golden thread to hold you all of my days
G C
Hold my head against you, now and for always
G C
Sewn me up, shown us a long, long time
D G
Makes you my life
C D G
Makes you my life
[Instrumental]
G C G C
[Verse 3]
D G
And when you looked, your angel flew away
C D C G
And what it meant was, your protection's gone another day
D Am D Am
And what has come to change you and have you, come what may
C D G C G
Is fashioned by an old triangle, green as April haze__
C G C D D7
Blue is just a colour, but blue is here to stay
[Chorus]
G C
It's a golden thread to hold you all of my days
G C
Hold my head against you, now and for always
G C
Sewn me up, shown us a long, long time
D G
Makes you my life
[Chorus]
C
It's a golden thread to hold you all of my days
G C
Hold my head against you, now and for always
G C
Sewn me up, shown us a long, long time
D G
Makes you my life
C D G
Makes you my life
C D G C G C
Makes you my___ life
