The Color Green (Gloria in Excelsis)
Rich Mullins
2 Chronicles 6:18/Psalm 24
Am F C Dm Em
|:[ / / / ][ / / / ][ / / / ]:|
---------------------------------
Cno3
And the moon is a sliver of silver
F2no3
Like a shaving that fell on the floor of a Carpenter's shop
Dm
And every house must have it's builder
Am
And I awoke in the house of God
C2
Where the windows are mornings and evenings
F2
Stretched from the sun, across the sky north to south
Dm F2
And on my way to early meeting
Am Gsus G
I heard the rocks crying out, I heard the rocks crying out
Bb Fmaj7
Be praised for all Your tenderness by these works of Your hands
Dm Am Em
Suns that rise and rains that fall to bless and bring to life Your land
Bb Fmaj7
Look down upon this winter wheat and be glad that You have made
Dm Am Bb
Blue for the sky and the color green
F2 Em/G VAMP2x (Am G/B C2sus)
That fills Your fields with praise
C2sus
And the wrens have returned and are nesting
F2
In the hollow of that oak where his heart once had been
Dm2 Am2
And he lifts up his arms in a blessing for being born again
C2
And the streams are all swollen with winter
Fmaj9
Winter unfrozen and free to run away now
Dm F2 Am
And I'm amazed and I remember Who it was that built this house
Gsus G
And with the rocks I cry out
Am Bb F
...and the color green
(vamp 18x)
