Well, they guild their houses in

With every sort of shiny thing

They will be surprised
[Am7] [Am7/D]

Take me to the alley
[Gmaj7] [Am7] [Gmaj7] [Am7]
Take me to the afflicted ones

Take me to the lonely ones

That somehow lost their way

Come to my table

Rest here in my garden

You will have a pardon
