Book Faded Brown

Written by Paul Jost
Album: Jubilation


(intro)
F Dm x 4

(verse)
F               Dm
Another autumn night it's getting chilly
F               Dm
Birds are gathering round getting ready
F               Dm
The Moon and the sun are both so heavy
G
Barely off the ground
Am                              Bb
He's turning the wheels of his daddy's plow
Am                              Bb
Sowing the land that's been handed down
Gm                    C                 F
Singing a song from a book that's faded brown

F Dm
(verse)
F               Dm
Mary she's on the step she's waiting
F               Dm
Hair is like a light from heaven
F               Dm
The family comes together now
G
Believe in what they found
Am                   Bb
Grace is said at the table round
Am                   Bb
A prayer before they settle down
Gm                C                 F
Side by side in a book that's faded brown

(chorus)
Bb       C             Dm
Have you ever wondered why?
Bb       C             Dm
There's a rainbow in the sky?
Bb   C
It's all the tears
C    Dm
That God has been crying
       G
And it leaves the world
And it leaves the world
       C
With a rainbow for a crown

(verse)
F                     Dm
Those that said, said they're the outsiders
F        Dm               G
Are only easy riders on a horse that's going lame 
Am                          Bb
For the way of the world is upside down
Am                      Bb                         
They can all hold hands When they walk through town
Gm                  C                 F
Side by side with a book that's faded brown

[Garth accordion bridge]

(chorus)
Bb       C             Dm
Have you ever wondered why?
Bb       C             Dm
There's a rainbow in the sky?
Bb   C
It's all the tears
C    Dm
That God has been crying
       G
And it leaves the world
And it leaves the world
       C
With a rainbow for a crown
Whoa

(verse)
F                     Dm
By the way have I told you already
F        Dm                  G
That his parents were buried by a tree that they loved
Am                      Bb
The way of the world is upside down
Am                      Bb
Even the flowers stood without a sound 
Gm                    C
Pressed together in a book that's faded
Gm                    C
Pressed together in a book that's faded
Gm                    C                 Dm
Pressed together in a book that's faded brown
Gm                    C               F
Bound together in a book that's faded brown
