Poets Heart by Kate Wolf
Poets Heart
CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: Em7 C B7 Em G
Am
I wrote to you somewhere in South Australia
F C G
A poet's heart in the eye of a hurricane
Am
I struggle with finding words to sing these days, I said
C B7 Em G
As if my thoughts are waiting in the wings for the stage to clear
CHORUS:
Am
And you in your elegance and humour fill the room
Em D
Your love and your concern
C B7 C
Your anger at the injustice of man's narrowness and fear
D Em7 G
I thank you for being here
Am
You wrote of love from the coast of Mendocino
F C G
A poet's heart crying a fighter's tears
Am
The children of your body spread out across this earth
C B7 Em G
Like messages written across time measuring the years
CHORUS:
Am
You in your elegance and humour fill the room
Em D
Your love and your concern
C B7 C
Your anger at the injustice of man's narrowness and fear
D Em7 G
I thank you for being here
Am
I heard your songs reach out to California
F C G
A poet's heart locked in the Coeur d'Alene
Am
Of the old men and the booze, singing out the truth in lives
C B7
Of forgiveness and loyalties to friends
Em G
Constant as the endless railroad ties
CHORUS:
Am
You in your elegance and humour fill the room
Em D
Your love and your concern
C B7 C
Your anger at the injustice of man's narrowness and fear
D Em7 G
I thank you for being here
INSTRUMENTAL: Am F C G Am C B7 Em G
Am
So here we are joined finally by our words
F C G
All poets' hearts close though far apart
Am
I remember how you said that language is a knife
C B7 Em
That spreads what we feel across the dry crust of someone's heart
CHORUS:
G Am
You in your elegance and humour fill the room
Em D
Your love and your concern
C B7 C
Your anger at the injustice of man's narrowness and fear
D Em7
I thank you for being here
