O Grace

	  		 
 

D                          Bm 
she said I've been the stockyard's pony 
            D                  Bm          A 
she said I've been the mountain engine's roll 
     G                   D 
from Chicago to West Virginia 
            Bm                A           Em 
I've been as lonesome as the world's first ghost 
G                          D 
as lonesome as the world's first ghost 


D                          Bm 
but out here even the prairie doubts the horizon 
            D                  Bm          A 
all I have to do is prove that I'm not pure 
     G                   D 
oh the right words come but I ain't talking 
            Bm                A           Em 
the devil's mean but he's honest just as sure 
G                          D       A 
oh he is honest just as sure 


A                     G       D 
oh grace when you stop believing 
A                         G        D 
that don't mean that it just goes away 
        A              G      D 
it's a long way between horizons 
          Bm         A      Em 
and it gets farther every day 
G     A 
oh grace 
G     D 
oh grace 


A                     G       D 
oh grace when you stop believing 
A                         G        D 
that don't mean that it just goes away 
        A              G      D 
it's a long way between horizons 
          Bm         A      Em 
and it gets farther every day 
G     A 
oh grace 
G     D 
oh grace 

D                          Bm 
she says but I know a man who's heart is restless 
            D                  Bm          A 
he's never home and he's never gone 
     G                   D 
and he had some good things but he lost them 
            Bm                A           Em 
like everything he ever set his heart upon 
G                          D      A 
oh that he set that heart upon 


A                    G       D 
oh boy if you stop believing 
A                         G        D 
that don't mean that I just walk away 
        A              G      D 
it's a long way between horizons 
          Bm         A      Em 
and it gets farther every day 
G     A 
oh grace 
G     D 
oh grace
