Gospel Thunder

Ain't much left but this old flame

Sunday dust and windowpane

(ahhhh) {slow organ swell,

guitar answers} I lit a match in the pouring rain

Held it close through the hurt and strain

Every mile wrote your name in smoke

Every prayer caught inside my throat

{ooh}

{subtle piano joins} Bring me home by the gospel fire Lift these

bones a little higher If your love still knows my name Wash

this heart and ease the pain (ohhh)

{full band lift, backing voices rise} I wore the night like a

borrowed coat

Torn at the seams by the words we spoke

Still that river keeps calling low

Telling me where the broken go (hummmm) {guitar and organ trade lines}

When the room goes still

When the ache gets loud

Carry me through

Carry me now (ohhh) {half-time feel,

choir response} Bring me home by the gospel fire Lift these bones

a little higher If your love still knows my name Wash this

heart and ease the pain (yeah) {bigger choir,

guitar cries

above band}

Lay me down where the old hymns start

Leave a little light on this heart (ahhhh)

{guitar outro, organ fades}
