The Rope - The Emerson Letters
This is the way I play this song, it could be slightly different.
It is played a half step down I think, but I play it in standard most of the time.
Am G F
What good is a pen that will not write
C F
what good is a promise left unkept
Am G F
what good is an open evening sky
C F
if all the clouds refuse to rain

chorus
Dm C G
I'm not at the end of my rope
F Gsus G
I'm steady in this ship to sail
Dm C G
if there's healing in an honest word
F Gsus G
if truth is like a soft kiss
F C G
then oh-oh-oh oh lord
C Bm Am
will this storm pass us over
F C G
oh-oh-oh oh lord
C Bm Am
will this storm pass us over
G F
halle lu-u-u-jah
(no chord) so tell me
Am G F
are we not a breath are we not a mist
C F
I think that everybody here knows it
Am G F
so this time, as the season turns once again
C F
I'm pushing my soul, against this bitter cold
