[Intro]
D
Here's a song and a prayer for you
G D
For the bruised and the broken hearted
G A
For the weary and the whistle blowers
Bm A
Newly born or just departed
D
For the fruit that withered on the vine
G D
And the seed we left unplanted
G A
And the love we watched walk away
Bm D
And for the friends we took for granted
[Verse 1]
D A
You've built a life together
D G
Now it's shattered on the floor
D G A
Once again you’re gathering up the pieces
D A
Your ship has come untethered
D A G
Drifting free once more
D G A D
And the ever rising storm, it never ceases
G
Summon up your strengt
Bm D
And lean upon the oar
Em G
I’m sending you a dove
A
Now strike out for the shore
[Chorus]
G
You’ll get by
D
You always do
A D
For the wind that shakes the barley
D A G
Never touches you
G A Bm
Come on sister, brother don’t you cry
G A
You don’t know it now
D
But you’ll get by
[Verse 2]
D A
When your best is not accepted
D G
Cries for help unheard
D G A
While all around unkindness gets rewarded
D A
Hopes and plans rejected
D A G
And you’re forced to join the herd
D G A D
As cynical indifference is applauded
G
You’ve walked this road before
Bm D
You can walk it once again
Em G
Why should it break you now
A
’Cos it didn’t break you then
[Chorus]
G
You’ll get by
D
You always do
A D
For the wind that shakes the barley
D A G
Never touches you
G A Bm
Come on sister, brother don’t you cry
G A
You don’t know it now
D
But you’ll get by
[Middle 8]
G
You are bruised but unbroken
Bm D
You are bloodied but unbowed
G D
Unsteady on your feet still standing
G
It’s not the fame or the fortune
D D/C# Bm
Or the rapture of the crowd
G A
You’re fighting for respect and understanding
[Verse 3]
D A
Castle walls are falling
D G
Thieves are at the gate
D G A
To take away our rights and our choices
D A
False prophets are calling
D A G
Singing out hymns of hate
D G A D
Silencing the land with siren voices
G
But the bully and the braggart
Bm D
You can drag them from their thrones
Em G
Don’t join in with their songs
A
When you’re loud enough alone
[Chorus]
G
You’ll get by
D
You always do
A D
For the wind that shakes the barley
D A G
Never touches you
G A Bm
Come on sister, brother don’t you cry
G A
You don’t know it now
D
But you’ll get by
[Short instrumental brek]
D A
D A G
[Chorus]
G A Bm
Come on sister, brother don’t you cry
G A
You don’t know it now
G A
You don’t know it now
G A
You don’t know it now
D
But you’ll get by
