WON'T YOU COME AND SING FOR ME by Hazel Dickens
I fe[E]el t[D]he[A] shadows now upon me
[D]And [A]fa[E]ir angels beckon to me.
B[D]ef[A]ore I go today, my brother,
[E]Won't[D] you c[A]ome and sing for me?
Chorus:
[D]Si[A]ng the hymn we sang together
I[E]n [D]th[A]at plain little church where the benches are worn.
How [D]dear [A]to my heart, how precious the moment
W[E]e stoo[D]d sha[A]king our hands and singing our song.
My burden is heavy, my way has grown weary.
I have traveled a road that is long.
And it would cheer my heart, my brother
If you would come and sing one song.
Chorus-----
In my home beyond the dark river
Your dear faces no more I will see.
And when we meet, well there's no sad parting.
Won't you come and sing for me.
Chorus-----
Jody plays some positively amazing flatpicked guitar breaks on his and
Kate's
recording that I won't even attempt to describe. I play it with a less
ambitious Maybelle Carter-like approach. Learn this one and then teach it
to
all your friends: that chorus absolutely screams for a throng of
harmonizers!
