Аккорды Paul Simon - Wartime Prayers

[Intro]
B  Bm C Bm

[Verse]
Bm                                    C      Bm
Prayers offered in times of peace are silent conversations,
A                G                  C
Appeals for love or love's release
G              D       Gb
In private invocations
Abm             Gbm     Bm       E
But all that is changed now,
C                           Gb  Bm
Gone like a memory from the day before the fires.
Bm                                  Em
People hungry for the voice of God
C                  D      Bm G
Hear lunatics and liars
A                G
Wartime prayers, wartime prayers
C        G            D   D7
In every language spoken,
D7        C      Em            D
For every family scattered and broken.
Gb B E B

[Chorus]
E       B
Because you cannot walk with the holy,
E
If you're just a halfway decent man.
B
I don't pretend that I'm a mastermind
E
With a genius marketing plan.
B
I'm trying to tap into some wisdom,
Gb7  E
Even a little drop will do.
E      Abm
I want to rid my heart of envy
Dbm
And cleanse my soul of rage
Dbm                        Cmaj7
Before I'm through.

[Verse]
Bm7
Times are hard, it's a hard time
Bm                  Am                    D7
But everybody knows all about hard times.
Gb7      Bm
The thing is, what are you gonna do?
Bm                       C
Well, you cry and try to muscle through
C      Bm
Try to rearrange your stuff
Bm7          A7
But when the wounds are deep enough,
A    G
It's all that we can bear,
C           Em        D         Gb7  B
We wrap ourselves in prayer.

[Chorus]
E           B
Because you cannot walk with the holy,
E
If you're just a halfway decent man.
B
I don't pretend that I'm a mastermind
E
With a genius marketing plan.
B
I'm trying to tap into some wisdom,
E
Even a little drop will do.
E      Abm
I want to rid my heart of envy
Dbm
And cleanse my soul of rage
Dbm        Cmaj7      Em
Before I'm through.

[Outro]
Bm7                  Gbm
A mother murmurs in twilight sleep
C                     Bm
And draws her babies closer.
A                    G
With hush-a-byes for sleepy eyes,
C   G              D
And kisses on the shoulder.
C         G      D
To drive away despair
C          G       D
She says a wartime prayer
