Antioch/Sacred Harp #277 - Nancy K. Dillon, Traditional lyrics

Stage Fright
Daniel And The Sacred Harp
Chorus:
G d
Daniel, daniel and the sacred harp,
C g
Dancing through the clover.
C bm
Daniel, daniel would you mind,
D7 g
If i look it over.

Verse:
G c d7 g
I heard of this famous harp years ago back in my home town
C d em
But i sure never thought old daniel be the one to come and bring it around
G d c g
Tell me daniel how the harp came into your posession.
D c g
Are you one of the chosen few who will march in the the procession?
C em

And daniel said:
G d g d
The sacred harp was handed down, from father unto son,
C bm am d7
And me not being related, i could never be the one.
G d g d
So i saved up all my silver, and took it to a man,
C bm am g
Who said he could deliver the harp, straight into my hand.

Em a
Three years i waited patiently,
D c
'till he returned with the harp from the sea of galilee.
Em a
He said there is one more thing i must ask,
D c
But not of personal greed.
Bm am
But i wouldn't listen i just grabbed the harp,
D7 g
And said take what you may need.

G c d g
Now daniel looked quite satisfied, and the harp it seemed to glow.
C d em
But the price that daniel had really paid, he did not even know.
G d7
Back to his brother he took his troubled mind.
C g
And he said dear brother i'm in a bind.
D7
But the brother would not hear his tale,
C g
He said old daniel's gonna land in jail.
G d
So to his father daniel did run,
G d
And he said oh father what have i done.
C bm am
His father said son you've given in, you know you won your harp,
G
But you lost in sin.

Em a
Then daniel took the harp and went high on the hill,
D c
And he blew across the meadow like a whippoorwhill.
Em a
He played out his heart just the time to pass,
D c g
But as he looked to the ground, he noticed no shadow did he cast.

Repeat chorus
