Rich Mullins - The Color Green (Music Video) chords
Start Jamming...
And the moon is a sliver of silver,
Like a shaving [F] that fell on the floor of a carpenter's shop.
[Dm] And every house must have its builder.
[Am] And I awoke in the house of God,
[C] Where the windows of mornings and evenings
Stretch from the sun across the sky,
North to south.
[Dm] And on my way to early meeting,
[C]
[G] I [Am] heard the rocks crying out,
I [G] heard the rocks crying out,
[Bb] She prayed for all your tenderness,
[F] By these works of your hands.
[Dm] Suns that rise and rains that fall the best,
[Am] And brings to [E] life your lands.
[Bb] Look down upon this winter week,
[F] And be glad that you have [Em] made
[Dm] Blue for the [Am] sky and the color [Bb] green,
[F]
A land it [Em] fills [Am] with praise.
[C] [D] [Em]
[A] [F] [C]
[Em] [A]
[C]
And the wrens have returned and they're nesting
In the hollow of that oak,
Where his heart once had been.
[D] He lifts up his arms in a blessing
[A]
For [Am] being born again.
[D] And the [C] streams are all swollen with winter,
Winter unfolds,
Spring will run away now.
[Dm] And I'm amazed and [F] I remember
[A]
Who it was that [Am] built this house,
And [G] with rocks I cry out,
Be [Bb] praised for all your tenderness,
[F] By these works of your hands.
[C] [Dm] Suns that rise and rains that fall the best,
[Am] And brings to life [Em] your lands.
[Bb] Look down upon this winter week,
[F] And be glad that you have made
[E] [Dm] Blue for the sky [Am] and the color [Bb] green.
