The Prophet

Am Em7

vamp:
Am G D Esus E Am Em7 Am
|:[ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ]:|
G/A Fmaj7/A G/A Am
Reluctant ride in the middle of the belly of a whale
G/A Fmaj7/A
A wheel on fire in the middle of the sky
Dm G Am
Abandoned baby kicking on the side of the road
Fmaj7 G VAMP(1x)
And a wife has died but you're denied the right to cry
Three men walk out proteccted from a furnace of flame
One man cries out from a miry well
See a man in the myrtles and women with the wind in their wings
Fmaj7 G Am G/A Am /C
Understand what these seared lips can tell
Chorus:
Dm G Am
I am the prophet and I smolder and burn
Dm G Em7 Am /G
I scream and cry and wonder why you never seemed to learn
Dm G C D2
To hear with your own ears with your own eyes to see
Fmaj7 G Am
I am the prophet, won't you listen to me?
Fmaj7 G Am (VAMP 1st time)
I am the prophet, won't you listen to me?
I hold out hope to everyone who hears and understands
The Word of God can echo in the voice of a man
He's the shadow of a great rock in a dry and weary land
With the names of the ones He loved carved into His hands
CHORUS
Fmaj7/A G/A Fmaj7/A Am
The sorrow in His anger, my eyes weep His tears
Em7/A Fmaj7/A G/A Am
His life alight in me
G/A Fmaj7/A Am
I am the sword that cuts His people apart
G/A Fmaj7/A Em7 E7
I speak the Word that comforts their faithless hearts
CHORUS (2x)
Fmaj7/A G/A VAMP(2x)
I am the prophet
ad lib postlude
