Lyrics Patty Griffin - Love Throw a Line

Capo 5

Yep E7 through the verses...

E7
Lets write a story of a tidal wave
We run out of luck, we run out of days
We run out of gas a hundred miles away from a station
Theres a war and a plague, smoke and disaster
Lions in a coliseum, screams of laughter
Motherless children, a witness and a Bible
Nothin but the rain ahead and no chance for our survival

A
Just before the flood comes
E7
Just before the night falls
A
Just before the blood runs
G E7
Into the valley
A
Just before my eyes go
G A
Just before we cant go no further
G A E7
Love throws a line to you and me

E7
Heard someone talking from very far away
Sister oh sister, did I hear them say
Prisoner of this endless story of pain
You hold the key, try to find a way

A
Just before the flood comes
E7
Just before the night falls
A
Just before the blood runs
G E7
Into the valley
A
Just before my eyes go
G A
Just before it all blows to pieces
G A E7
We see love throw a line to you and me

E7
Love... throw a line
Love... throw a line
Love... you better pick up your pace if we're gonna win this race
Love... we're runnin out of time pull yourself from up behind
Love... throw a line
