Chords for The Sire of Sorrow (Job's Sad Song)

Let me speak, [G] _ _ _ _ _
[D] let me spit out my [Bm] bitterness _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ Born of [G] grief and nights without [D] sleep _
Then the string flushed _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [D]
Do [G] you have eyes? _ _ _ _
[D] Can you see like mankind [Em] sees? _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ Why [Bm] have you soured [D] and curdled me?
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] Oh, you [Bm] tireless watcher
[G] _ _ _ _
_ [D] What have I done [Em] to you?
_ _ Now you make [Bm] everything I dread
[D] And [D] everything I fear Come _ true _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[G] Once I was _ blessed _ _
I [D] was awaited like [E] the rain _
[B] Like [Bm] _ _ _ [A] _ _
[G] eyes for the blind
[D] Like feet for the lame _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[G] Kings heard my words
_ _ _ [D] _
And they sought out my [Em] company _
_ _ But now [A] the janitors [Bm] of _ Shadowland
[D] _ Flick their brooms at me _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] Oh, [A]
you [Bm] tireless watcher
_ What _ _ _ have I done [Em] to you? _
_ _ [Bm] Now you make [G] _ [Bm] everything I dread
[A] And everything I [D] fear _
Come true
Man is the sire of Skarlo
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
I've lost all taste for [D] life
[G] Of all complaints
_ _ Tell me, why do you starve the faithful?
Why [D] do you crucify [A] the _ saints?
[Bm] And you let the wicked prosper
You [Em] let their children frisk like deer
And [A] _ my loves are [Bm] dead or dying
_ [D] _ But they don't come near
We don't despise your chastening
_ God is [B] correcting you [G]
all
And look who comes _ _ _
[D] To counsel my [Bm] deepest stress
_ _ _ For [A] all these _ [Bm] harmless positions
_ _ [D] For _ carelessness
For all this frantic, _ heartless wind
_ Filling our ears with trash
[G]
Breathtaking _ ignorance _ _ _ _
[D] Adding insult to [Bm] injury _
_ _ _ They [A] come blaming [Bm] And shaming _ [D] _ Shattering me
_ This pain and wish is too soon wise
_ Man boasts [G] of us as a [A] fool
Oh, you [Bm] tireless watcher
[G] _ _ _ _
_ [D] What have I [Em] done to you? _
_ _ [D] That you [G] make everything [Bm] I dread
[A] And everything I [D] fear
And still, _ we don't despise your chastening
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
Already on a bed of [G] sighs and screams _
_ _ And still [Bm] you torture me with visions
_ You [D] give me terrifying _ [A] _ dreams
_ [Bm] _ Better I was carried
[G] _ [Em] From the womb straight to the grave
_ _ [A] _ I see the [Bm] diggers waiting
[D] They're leaning on their spades
Man is the sire of sorrow
[D] _
_ Sure as the sparks [A] are sent _
[G] Where is hope? _ _ _ _ _
[D] Why are you wondering
[Em] What went wrong? _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
Why [Bm] give me light
[G] Than live this dark [D] without a dawn?
Evil is sleeping on our knees
_ _ Hiding under [B] your tongue
[G]
Show your face
_ But a long fall from [D] grace
Help me [Em] understand _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
What [Bm] is the reason [G] for your [D] hairy hair?
_ You're stumbling and shagging _
_ You have no name now
Was [G] it the sins of [Bm] my youth?
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ What have I [Em] done to you? _
_ _ That you [G] make everything [Bm] I dread
And [A] everything I [D] fear
And still, _ I am guiltless, wait so greatly
_ _ _ _ [G] Everything [Bm] I dread [A] and everything I [D] fear
_ Come true
Man is the sire of sorrow
_ _ Oh, you [G] make [Bm] everything I dread
[A] And everything I [D] fear _ _
Come true _ _ _ _ _
