Version 1
            Capo on 1st fret 

D                 C
Goldenrod and the 4h stone,
    Am                   
the things I brought you 
        G                 D                    C Am G
when I found out you had cancer of the bone.

D                        C
Your father cried on the telephone,
       Am                     G
and he drove his car into the navy yard,
        D                      C Am G
just to prove that he was sorry. 

       D                    C
In the morning, through the window shade,
          Am                          G
when the light pressed up against your shoulderblade,
        D                         C Am G
I could see what you were reading.
         
        D              C
All the glory that the Lord has made,
        Am                       G
and the complications you could do without,
        D                      C Am G 
when I kissed you on the mouth.

D                    C
Tuesday night at the Bible study,
   Am                  G
we lift our hands and pray over your body,
    D                    C Am G
but nothing ever happens.

D             C
I remember at Michael's house,
        Am                   G
in the living room when you kissed my neck,
      D                          C Am G
and I almost touched your blouse.

       D              C
In the morning at the top of the stairs,
          Am                        G
when your father found out what we did that night,
        D                       C Am G
and you told me you were scared.

        D              C
All the glory when you ran outside,
          Am                       G
with your shirt tucked in and your shoes untied,
         D                        C Am G
and you told me not to follow you.

D / C / Am / G / D / C / Am / G

D                   C
Sunday night when I cleaned the house,
  Am                       G
I find the card where you wrote it out,
            D                     C Am G
with the pictures of your mother.

D                   C
On the floor at the great divide,
        Am                      G
With my shirt tucked in and my shoes untied,
      D                      C Am G
I am crying in the bathroom.

       D                C
In the morning when you finally go,
        Am                     G
and the nurse runs in with her head hung low,
         D                        C Am G
and the cardinal hits the window.

       D              C
In the morning in the winter shade,
       Am                     G
on the first of March on the holiday,
   D                           C Am G
I thought I saw you breathing.

        D              C
All the glory that the Lord has made,
       Am                     G
and the complications when I see His face,
        D                     C Am G
in the morning in the window.

        D             C
All the glory when he took our place,
       Am                         G
but he took my shoulders and he shook my face,
        D                                C Am G
and he takes, and he takes, and he takes.
D           Am          C         G
Toodoo doo, toodoo doo, ta da da, ta da da da (repeated)
