EDGE OF GLORY
Joan Baez
From the album Play Me Backwards
Chorus
------
Am G F
My house stands at the edge of glory
G Am Am9/Am7
Steady as the seasons change
Am G F
Dreams of grace arise before me
F G F
And they call me home again
Verse
-----
C F
I went forth with no protection
C F
Through a fierce and blinding rain
C F
Seeking truth but not perfection
Am G7
I saw my father's face again
F C
Father Father can you hear me?
Dm7 C
Through this swirl of thoughts unsaid
F C
All you wanted I did not know
Am G
But all you asked I tried to give
[Chorus]
C F
Take this hand that I hold out
C F
Meant to bridge the years apart
C F
Come in, come in from the howling wind
Am G7
To the clearing of my heart
F C
Still and lovely came the morning
Dm7 C
Glory was my father's face
F C
In my house a bright reflection
Am G
New among my dreams of grace
