Hail, Mary Shearwater
Intro:
[C] [C4] [Bb]
Oh h[Gm]ail Mary, full of de[Eb]ath
[Bb]Sing me a bitter song[C] [C4]
As d[Eb]ark as the day is [C]lo[C4]ng
And as bl[Bb]ack as your e[F]yes are w[C]ild
While the [Gm]hail from the blackened cl[Eb]oud is rak[Bb]ing the firmament[C] [C4]
Destr[Eb]oying our argument[C] [C4]
About the t[Bb]emperature a[F]nd the [C]time
[Dm]Wild and unb[Gm]roken[C]
[C] [C4] [Bb]
We l[Gm]ay like a wounded l[Eb]amb, [Bb]facing a billygoat[C] [C4]
Bowed d[Eb]own in our heavy coats[C] [C4]
Under the [Bb]force and the [F]threat of his ey[C]es
And we m[Gm]arch in our rows and ro[Eb]ws
[Bb]Under a burning hand[C] [C4]
[Eb]Past the scars of the wounded land[C] [C4]
Into a co[Eb]untry of thor[Bb]ns and spines[C]
[Dm]Wild and unb[Gm]roken[C] [C4]
Oh, [Gm]God save the [C]chamberlain
Oh, [Gm]God save his ap[C]pointed successor
But [Gm]God saved his h[C]ardest [Eb]face for [F]you and all your [C]kind
[C]That's what's troubling me
[Gm] [Eb] [Bb] [C] [C4] [Eb] [C] [C4] [Bb] [F] [C]
[Gm]Hail Mary, sick and [Eb]proud
And [Bb]holding aloft the light
That would [Eb]burn through a heaving night[C] [C4]
And then [Eb]leave us [Bb]upon the [C]rocks
[Gm]And the child who is nearly bor[Eb]n
[Bb]Waits just to do you harm[C] [C4]
[Eb]Like the shock of a broken arm[C] [C4]
Or a [Bb]love that would [F]burn you blind[C]
[Dm]Wild and unbroken
[C] [C4] [Bb]
