Hands on a Grain of Sand Lyrics

by Amelia Curran
This isn't quite complete.
There are a few chords missing that
I can not quite nail down, but it is playable as written,
and I believe this is more accurate than the existing
version that is floating around right now.
Intro: Em, G, C
Hounds are broodin' in my bones
But I'm a good dog runnin' halfway home
Hear the lonely promenade
Come to nurse the tender terrways
CHORUS:
All hands on a grain of sand
Half smallest things are the high demand
I can only serenade
And wait my turn to burn or fade
All the colours you can see
Cover the borders of a masterpiece
Time can paint the best of me
Over the unclear eyes of memory
Cover love from sympathy
Be my maker, set me free
Truer hearts could not contain
How I cover love but I have not changed
If I had the past undone
Then I would give my heart to everyone
Hounds are turnin', doves have flown
But I am a good dog runnin' halfway home
Outro: Em, G, C
