Together (Amador)

(Amidor plays this in an open D tuning. Chords below are a rough approximation.)

All of the people of all of the earth
Each with a piece of all this hurt
Some take it in, some give it away
Among other things that I can't explain
Childlike wonders that wither & flicker & fade

(3/4) D A Bm D / G D A D ://  G D A D (G - - - / A - - - )

But when we're together opening heart
It doesn't matter that all falls apart
When we're together - there lies the art
We'll make it better when it falls apart
Will it always fall apart?

A - A(F#) - G - - - / A - D A Bm A G - :// (A - ) Bm A G G(F#) D(E) - D - 

All of the people of all of the earth
Each with a reason, a heart & a worth
Some devastate when you're in their way
And dig themselves deeper in hopes that you stay
Childlike blunders that cover up feeling afraid

D A Bm D / G D A D ://  G D A D (G - - - / A - - - )

But when we’re together: wandering soul
We’ll build a ladder & climb out of that hole
When we’re together our only goal
Is to make it better when it all unfolds
For it always does unfold

A - A(F#) - G - - - / A - D A Bm A G - :// (A - ) Bm A G G(F#) D(E) - D - 

(humming)

G - D - A - D - (4x) etc.

Together (x4), etc.

(sung over the "Together" chant):
Opening hearts (x2)
For it all falls part (x2)
