Hosea  Andrew Peterson

Intro
Dbm, B, E, A
V1
[Dbm]Every time I lay in the[B] bed beside you,
[E]Hosea, Hosea[A],
[Dbm]I hear the sound of the [B]streets of the cit[E]y.[A]
[Dbm]My belly growls like a[Abm] hungry wolf
And I let [B]it prowl till my belly[E]'s full.[A]
Hosea, my heart is a stone[E].[B] [E] [A]
V2
Please believe me when I say I'm sorry,
Hosea, Hosea,
You loveable, gullible man.
I tell you that my love is true
Till it fades away like a morning dew.
Hosea, leave me alone.
Bridge
[Abm]Here I am in the [A]Valley of Trouble.
[E]Just look at the [B]bed that I've made:
[Abm]Badlands as far [A]as I can s[E]ee.[B]
[Dbm]There's no one here [B]but me, Hose[A]a.
V3
I st[Dbm]umbled and fell in the r[B]oad on the way home,
[E]Hosea, [A]Hosea.
[Dbm]I lay in the brick street l[B]ike a stray [E]dog.
[Dbm]You came to me like a [Abm]silver moon
With the [B]saddest smile I [E]ever kn[A]ew.
Hosea carried me [E]home [B]ag[E]ai[A]n.
[E]Home agai[B]n.[E] [A] [B]
Bridge
You called me out to the Valley of Trouble
Just to look at the mess that I've made,
A barren place where nothing can grow.
One look and my stone heart crumbled
It was a valley as green as jade.
[Abm]I swear it was the [A]color of hope.
[E]You turned a s[B]tone into a [A]rose,
Hosea. Hosea[F#] [B]
[F#] [B]  
V4
[Dbm]I sang and I danced like I di[B]d as a young [E]girl,
[A]Hosea, Hosea.
[Dbm]I am a slave and a [B]harlot no[E] more.
[Dbm]You washed me clean like a [B]summer rain
[F#]And you set me free with that [E]ball and c[A]hain.
Hosea, I threw away the k[E]ey.[A]
I'll ne[E]ver leave.[A]
E, A, E, A
