The thread of the world [B] is making the sheath From the word to the bead, [Bm] the tree to the
leaf From the eye over the rock [A] to the mountainside
Dying up to a [Bm] star in the skirt of the sky You [A] must empty your [Bm] pockets of stones
[A] They're lighthearted, [D] you may go, [F#m] but you must [Bm] go
With [A] the stitch of the world into the stitch [Bm] of the word
White is the quick [A] of the loom and the pin Red is the mark where the [Bm] needle comes in
As it weaves through your heart, try [A] not to be scared
Just a bead on a [F#m] string in [Bm] a blanket of bed You [A] must empty your [Bm] pockets of stones
[A]
They're lighthearted, [D] you may go, [A] but you [Bm] must go

Shaped to a shadow, [A] shadow could be Where a mouse at the river [Bm] is joined in a sea
With the wind and the waves [A] blowing into a crease
At the strands of the [Bm] bank showing into your feet
[A] You must empty your pockets [Bm] of stones [A] They're lighthearted, you [D] may go, [A] but you [Bm] must go
