Ode To John

Intro: D  G  Bm7  A 


    D 
The night is cold 
           G 
But now we have to go 
    Bm7 
The bundle in yours arms I know 
  A 
It weighs the world 
    D 
The star that shines 
            G 
Will be our only light 
    Bm7 
The moon can't face the sight 
      A 
Of our child alone 


    D 
And all I ask 
       G 
Is the joy we had 
    Bm7 
And all I ask 
     A 
We remember that

  D 
Remember back 
              G 
Those days in Sonny's lands 
   Bm7 
We worked until our blackened hands 
        A 
Wouldn't wash away 
   D 
If we knew then 
             G 
A night like this we'd spend 
   Bm7 
If we knew then 
      A 
Those tears we'd shed 


    D 
And all I ask 
       G 
Is the joy we had 
    Bm7 
And all I ask 
     A 
We remember that 
    D 
And all I see 
     G 
For eternity 
    Bm7 
And all I see 
     A 
Is beneath this tree

But now we have to go
