Sarah Harmer - Dandelions in Bullet Holes
Capo IV

Intro:
C C G C

C             
Kaleidoscope, wheel of hope
  G                 C
A place to start out from
  C                 
Although it started long ago
    G                C
The world's work has begun


  C
A hula hoop, a human chain
   C
To warm our hands and find our way
     G                 C
When all the lights go out


  C
A raincoat and a French beret
    C
The rolling hills of past mistakes
     G            C
Like quiet under cloud

           F         G      C
And I will long look to the churning sea
             F          G
This call to arms means wrap them
 C
Around the first person you see


F             G
Dandelions in bullet holes
   C              F
We stand in our civilian clothes
   F                 G
On blankets laid out on a lawn
C                   F
Clouds of rain will all move on
    F                    G
And when the mist clears we will see
     C               F
Both of our names on a marquee
 F               G
Across the ocean the same day
         C       F       G
And then washed ashore a block away

C C G C
 
        C
The windmill is waiting for the same thing
G                  C
As the slackened sail
       C
At the core within something like the wind
   G             C
Is blowing at the veil

           F       G       C
And I will long go on this inner sight
             F          G          C
This call to arms means hold to it
F
And hold tight


F             G
Dandelions in bullet holes
   C              F
We stand in our civilian clothes
   F                 G
On blankets laid out on a lawn
C                   F
Clouds of rain will all move on
    F                    G
And when the mist clears we will see
     C               F
Both of our names on a marquee
 F               G
Across the ocean the same day
         C       F       G
And then washed ashore a block away


F                                             C
Ah come on, these streams of light are not so subtle,
F                                            C
All along the ditch signs of life in sinking puddles.



F             G
Dandelions in bullet holes
   C              F
We stand in our civilian clothes
   F                 G
On blankets laid out on a lawn
C                   F
Clouds of rain will all move on
    F                    G
And when the mist clears we will see
    C               F
All of our names on a marquee
 F               G
Across the ocean the same day
         C       F       G
And then washed ashore a block away
