Intro: 
    C               Em              Am              F* 

C                          Em 
  You scuffed your sunday shoes when you leapt the fence 
Am                              F* 
  to chase the wolves from your baby sister. 
C                    Em 
  Who was eating dirt in the flowerbed 
Am                          F*              C 
  near the house where your mother hung her head 
      Em           Am    F* 
and wept for the lord to fill her up like 
C     Em      Am       F* 
buttermilk pancakes at sunday brunch.  

Intro (x2) 

C                        Em 
  the town was swept away in oceans of praise 
Am                          F* 
  with talk about how we're headed home. 
C                          Em 
  and how we'll all be held in the arms of 
Am         F* 
  the most selfless love 
        C         Em      Am              F* 
and the good that we have done is already written down 
    C        Em    Am        F* 
and we shall all become a phenomenon.

C                           Em 
  you scuffed your sunday shoes when you leapt the fence 
Am                               F* 
  to save your sister from those hungry wolves, 
C                        E                        Am 
  but you fell the wrong way, yeah you broke your leg 
            F*                  C      E Am          F* 
and now the animals are turning their heads, they're turning 
C               E       Am            F*      C E Am  F* 
no, now they're turning back. they're turning back. 
   C        Em       Am      F* 
to take you to their den and lick your bones, 
   C             Em       Am                F* 
to take you down to their home and kiss all on your bones 
    C     Em  Am       F* 
but don't be afraid to go with them, 
C       Em  Am          F* 
  don't be afraid to be carried home. 
    C            Em   Am          F* 
the sky, it will open up, it will swallow you whole 
    C        Em    Am                    F*          C Em Am  
but don't worry my love; it will feel so nice on your soul. 
   F*             C   Em   Am  F* 
so nice on your soul. 

C                 Em      Am      F* 
  and you will be laid to rest by gentle hands. 
C                 Em     Am             F* 
  and you will be sorely missed by your mother and your father and you, 
C        Em     Am             F* 
you, you will become your most favorite color, 
C        Em     Am             F* 
you, you will become your most favorite color 
C              Em        Am            F* 
  like the dinosaurs, discovered, then laid to rest. 
C              Em              Am        F* 
  like the dinosaurs, puzzled over, then laid to rest. 
C              Em                   Am          F* 
  like the dinosaurs, pieced back together, and laid to rest, 
   C  Em     Am            F*          C 
so don't you fret for your baby sister now.
