Bear Witness

• G

        G             Em                  Bm 
You can put 'em on the counter, there with all the other flowers 
             G                Em            Bm 
And help me figure out how to turn off this TV 
      G                Em                Bm 
I'm glad you made the visit, and if you think you have a minute 
            Am            D/F#             G 
You should sit and talk until it's time to leave 

       G             Em          Bm 
Is my granddaughter Ruthie still working at the movies? 
          G                  Em               Bm 
Does she still let all her boyfriends in for free? 
          G                      Em                  Bm 
Does she still stare out of the front door as she's serving people popcorn 
          Am             D/F#                  G         
And talk about how nice today was supposed to be? 

Am    C     D              C                         G 
Oh oh oh oh oh, that's the love that I came to bear witness to 
Am    C     D           C                               G 
Oh oh oh oh oh, and the love I'm taking with me when I go 

         G             Em          Bm 
Did you notice walking over at the house down at the corner 
          G             Em                  Bm 
There's a dog behind a window that doesn't move 
               G              Em                      Bm 
I've seen him staring in the mornings, I've seen him staring in the evenings 
            Am             D/F#             G 
As if time stops until his master's in the room 


Am    C     D              C                         G 
Oh oh oh oh oh, that's the love that I came to bear witness to 
Am    C     D           C                               G 
Oh oh oh oh oh, and the love I'm taking with me when I go 

       G                   Em                  Bm 
Some nights get worse than others, and I start thinking about your mother 
          G               Em           Bm 
And she's here with me as far as I can tell 
          G                  Em              Bm 
As if the world revealed its secret and it's asking me to keep it 
       Am                 D/F#       G 
Like a kid that hears the ocean in a shell 

               C                        G 
And that's the love that I came to bear witness to 
        C                              G 
And the love I'm taking with me when I go 

Am    C     D     
Oh oh oh oh oh, 
Am    C     D      
Oh oh oh oh oh, 


Am    C     D              C                         G 
Oh oh oh oh oh, that's the love that I came to bear witness to 
Am    C     D           C                               G 
Oh oh oh oh oh, and the love I'm taking with me when I go 

        C                               G 
And the love I'm taking with me when I go
