EBB AND FLOW

(c) 2001 GirlMoon Music

(C/G)(Am)
The tide does not ebb nor flow
(C/G)(Am)
There's always less land than sea
(Fmaj7)(Am7)
The stars do not know where to go
(C/G)(Am)
And there's no one to lead the sheep
(C/G)(Am)
Back to their homes, their shepherds
(Fmaj7)(Am7)
When a handful could not save the rest
(C/G)(Am)
So why do I always go with the herd
(C/G)(Am)
Though I know it's not for the best

{chorus}
(Fmaj7)(Am7)
Therefore the grace of you grace
(Fmaj7)(C)
Therefore the grace of you grace
(Fmaj7)(Am7)(C)
Therefore the grace of you grace mine eyes

The water here is never too blue
Brown like the dirt upon which we sleep
I'd share all that I have with you
If only for your heart to keep
And while you want to keep my heart
You'll never know what you have
Until you and I are taken apart
So let us stay in the moments we have

{repeat chorus}

Keep the fields while the crop still grows
Fly like the birds when you know you can
Never doubt what someone else knows
Or you won't know if they're a true friend
I am still knocked over by you
and hope someday to be together
Somehow I thought you always knew
That you're better than any other.

{Repeat chorus}
