Intro: Am7  Am6  Am7  D7  Am7  Am6  B  Em  Am7  Am6  Am7  D7  Am7  Am6  B  Em
 
Am7                                   Am6
    She takes the back road and the lane
                               Am7                 D7    
Past the school that has not changed in all this time
Am7                                   Am6
    She thinks of when the boy was young
                        B     Em               Am7
All the battles she had won just to give him life 
              Am6            Am7               D7
That man, she loved that man     for all his life
Am7                                Am6                  B      Em
    And now we meet to take him flowers and only God knows why
D6                                   B7/D#                               F#m
   For what's the use of pressing palms when children fade in mothers' arms?
                                          D6
It's a cruel world, we've so much to lose    
              B7/D#        E                Esus4  E
And what we have to learn, we rarely choose 
 
D7/A            C7/G                 D7/F#
     So if it's God who took her son
   Dm/F            E7              Am
He cannot be the one living in her mind 
 
Dm/F       G          Am            Dm/F        G           Am
     "Take care, my love", she said,     "Don't think that God is dead"
Dm/F       G          Am            F6      G         C      Am7  Am6  Am7  D7
     "Take care, my love", she said,   "You have been loved" 
 
Am7          Am6              Am7              D7
    If I was weak, forgive me,    but I was terrified
Am7                               Am6
    You brushed my eyes with angels' wings
          B                 Em    
Full of love, the kind that makes devils cry 
   Am7            Am6              Am7               D7
So, these days my life has changed     and I'll be fine
Am7                                    Am6                B           Em
    But she just sits and counts the hours, searching for   her crime 
D6                                   B7/D#                                F#m
   So what's the use of pressing palms if you won't keep such love from harm?
                                            D6
It's a cruel world, you've so much to prove    
              B7/D#      E                Esus4  E
And heaven help the ones who wait for you
 
D7/A                  C7/G                 D/F#
     Well, I've no daughters, I've no sons
      Dm/F          E7              Am
Guess I'm the only one living in my life 
 
Dm/F       G          Am           Dm/F        G           Am
     "Take care, my love", he said,     "Don't think that God is dead"
Dm/F       G          Am           F6      G         C      Cadd9
     "Take care, my love", he said,   "You have been loved"
