Iron & Wine - Muddy Hymnal Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • we found your name across the chapel door
  • carved in cursive with a table fork
  • muddy hymnals
  • and some bootmarks where you'd been
  • the shaking preacher told the captain's man
  • the righteous suffer in a fallen land
  • and pulled the shade
  • to keep the crowd from peeking in
  • we found your children by the tavern door
  • with wooden buttons and an apple core
  • playing house
  • and telling everyone you'd drowned
  • the begging choir told the captain's man
  • we all assume the worst the best we can
  • and for a round or two
  • they'd gladly track you down
  • we found you sleeping by your lover's stone
  • a ream of paper and a telephone
  • a broken bow
  • across a long lost violin
  • your lover's angel told the captain's man
  • it never ends the way we had it planned
  • and kissed her palm
  • and placed it on your dreaming head
