Welcome Me Lyrics
by Indigo Girls
WELCOME ME (Amy Ray)
(Actually in A; capo 2.)
(Each chord is one measure. There are variations within the measures that
I haven't noted here, mostly changing C and D to C(9) and D(9).)
Welcome me to the city of angels
Devil prophets still hold my hand
I walked your stillborn streets for hours
Ethnic echoes spitting out their trials
They tell me I'll, I'll be the first to praise the sun
The first to praise the moon, the first to hold the lone coyote
The last to set it free
Welcome me to a haven given
It's well received into my open arms
I ran in my sleep through shaking tremors
I felt the splitting earth echoing in my ears
And I feel that I, I'll be the first to praise the sun
The first to praise the moon, the first to hold the lone coyote
The last to set it free
(Guitar solo, same chords as one verse and one chorus)
Welcome me to your city of angels
See, there's a devil monkey laying on our backs
Now tell me, where's the heart, where's the bullet for breaking?
Who's gonna give me a weapon, a pacifying weapon?
And I need it, I'll, I'll be the first to praise the sun
The first to praise the moon, the first to hold the lone coyote
The last to set it free, I said, I said welcome me
I'll be the first to praise the sun
The first to praise the moon, oh, the first to hold the lone coyote
The last to set it free
TAB:
(Because of copyright concerns, I've taken out the tablature. If you
want to learn the complete lead part for "Welcome Me," buy the songbook
for _Nomads_Indians_Saints_; it's a good book to have.)
