Hands on a Grain of Sand
by Amelia Curran

This isn't quite complete. 
There are a few chords missing that 
I can not quite nail down, but it is playable as written,
and I believe this is more accurate than the existing 
version that is floating around right now. 

Capo 6

Intro: Em, G, C

Em                   G    C
Hounds are broodin' in my bones
  C                                  G
But I'm a good dog runnin' halfway home
D                    C
Hear the lonely promenade
        G                    D
Come to nurse the tender terrways

CHORUS:
Em             G        C
All hands on a grain of sand
     G                              D
Half smallest things are the high demand
D            C
I can only serenade
    G                      Em 
And wait my turn to burn or fade

Em,G,C

Em              G      C
All the colours you can see
 C                           G
Cover the borders of a masterpiece
D                          C
Time can paint the best of me
         G                 D
Over the unclear eyes of memory

CHORUS
Em,G,C

D                    C
Cover love from sympathy
G                   D
Be my maker, set me free
Am                       C
Truer hearts could not contain
      G                         D
How I cover love but I have not changed

Em           G      C
If I had the past undone
       C                               G
Then I would give my heart to everyone
D                             C
Hounds are turnin', doves have flown
 C                          G          D
But I am a good dog runnin' halfway home

CHORUS
Outro: Em, G, C
