The Trailing Skirts Of God
Tono: Original
INTRO:
F C Dm C
VERSE:
F C
I'm seven years old, and my bow-ties askew
Dm
Gonna get some body of Jesus Christ
C
In a brown velvet suit
F
All the girls are dressed like angels
C
How sweetly they sang
Dm
Oh be not afraid of
C
us delicate meringues
CHORUS:
Bb F
The trailing skirts of God
Bb F
The trailing skirts of God
Bb F
The trailing skirts of God
C
Have passed on by
VERSE:
It's five years later and I'm on my knees again
I am here to confirm what my parents began
And I promise to abstain from intoxicating liquor
But the flesh, it is weak,
and my faith was never stronger
CHORUS:
The trailing skirts of God
The trailing skirts of God
Yeah, The trailing skirts of God
Have passed on by
BRIDGE:
Dm C
But oh how I cling on
Dm C
Cos it's been a rich seam of song
Dm F
And though it's make-believe
C Dm
Can I bring myself to leave
Dm C F
This lie's been burning too long
VERSE:
Sometimes in my teens
Up in Kellyer's bedroom
Skipping on Saturday evening mass for some solvent abuse
As the world spun around me,
and I eased to the floor
Must remember to get that sermon,
and keep the wolf from the door
CHORUS:
Bb F
Yeah, The trailing skirts of God
Bb F
The trailing skirts of God
Bb F C
Those trailing skirts of God Have passed on by
C C C
Passed on By, Passed on By, Passed on By
OUTRO:
F C
I've drifted far from you
Dm
In this bloodless coup
C
I've drifted far from you
F C
I've drifted far from you
Dm
In this bloodless coup
C
I say good-day and adieu
