G D G
Can you fix this? It's a broken heart
Em D G
It was fine, but it just fell apart
Em C G
It was mine, but now I give it to you
Em D G
'Cause you can fix it, you know what to do
C G D G
CHORUS: Let your love cover me
Em D G
Like a pair of angel wings
Em B C G
You are my family
Em D G
You are my family
We stood outside in the summer rain
Different people with a common pain
A simple box in the hard red clay
Where we left him to always remain
CHORUS
And the child who played with the moon and stars
Waves a snatch of hay in a common barn
In the lonely house of Adam's fall
Lies a child, it's just a child, that's all
Crying...
CHORUS
Repeat last two lines, end on G
