Prayer Wheel

Capo on 2 

F#m      Bm   
Oh, oh, oh     play four times
F#m                        Fm         Em             Fm
These are the fasting days     Gonna' break our will 
    F#m                        Fm        Em            Fm
Let Christ out of the money box, Let our hearts be still 
      F#m                          Fm     Em          Fm   
We'll crawl on our bellies now and make a wound to heal
F#m                       Fm          Em      Fm
Dry blood on the potter's soil is our holy meal

     F#m
     Take a page, print your name, tack it to the prayer wheel
     Bm                                            F#m
     Spin it 'til it makes the sound of a thousand voices crying
                                     Bm 
     Every name that's on the prayer wheel, Lamentations up to heaven 
     E    
     Make some small enough to wear 
      G
     Around our wrists, reminders there 
            F#m            Bm 
     Of the promises we made
         F#m   Bm 

F#m                        Fm      Em           Fm
These are the gathering days    of clouds and pages
          F#m                       Fm    Em              Fm
There are icons on the subway walls,      prophets and sages
    F#m                     Fm       Em           Fm
The wheel will stand upon a mound of dust and ashes
    F#m                          Fm      Em 
Our backs are pinned against the wall of thorns and lashes

     F#m
     Take a page, print your name, tack it to the prayer wheel

     Spin it 'til it makes the sound of a thousand voices crying
                                     Bm 
     Every name that's on the prayer wheel, Lamentations up to heaven 
     E

     Around our wrists, reminders there

    F#m                        Fm       Em         Fm
Now these are the numbered days,    the final stages
   F#m                                   Fm      Em        Fm
We live in caves upon the mountain called    The Rock of Ages
               F#m                      Fm       Em 
And there will be no signs like statues with the bleeding hands
       F#m                 Fm      Em 
Just a fire burning in the soul of every man

     F#m
