Visitation Chords by Carrie Newcomer

_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's hard letting go, _ _ _ more than I thought _ _ _
And if [Bb] the truth [F] be [Bb] told, I'm a pillar of salt
_ I'm [D]
a pillar [F] of salt, _ for every time that it took _ _ _ _
Another [Bb] _ [F] fleeting [G] glance, another long [F] last look _ _ _ _
How can the mind transcend, _ how can the heart describe? _
We light a candle _ _ _ every [C] _ day _ _ _
I [F] ask the question _ _ even, _ when the why seems hollow
And breathe the silence in that, [C] _ usually follow _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
I am the cup, _ _ _ _ mended and washed _ _ _
I am [Bb] the true [F] _ _ [G] container, for all that I've lost
And _ all [F] that I've lost, _ and gathered again _ _
Is only [Bb] what [F] hangs in [G] the air when the music ends _ _ _
How can the mind transcend, _
[F] how can the heart describe?
We light a candle _ [Bb] _ _
every [C] _ day _ _ _
I [G] ask the question _ _ even, [C] when the why seems [F] hollow
And [Bb] breathe the [Am] _ [Bb] silence [F] in that, [C] _ usually _ follow
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _
[G] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] And _ now [Am] and then [Bb] are _ _ _ _ _ visitations
[Gm] _ To [F] heaven, hard for _ heart but [C] true
_ How _ [Gm] many [Am] _ _
times [G] I had [F] to ask
[F] The thing that I _ already [C] knew
He _ _ said [F] my horizon _ is getting closer to me
_ I need you [Bb] to look [G] _ beyond and tell me what you see _ _ _ _
Here's [F] what I see, _ but I need what you _ know _ _
Out on [Bb] the [F] curve of [Bb] the earth is a hope that [F] won't let go _ _
How can [Bb] the [F] mind transcend, _ how can the heart describe?
We light a candle _ [Bb] _ _
[C] every _ day _ _ _
I [G] ask the question _ [F] even, _ when the why seems hollow
And breathe the _ silence in that, [C] _ usually _ [F] follow
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
