My Morning Jacket - Victory Dance Chords

"Victory Dance"

Intro
Am (Listen to song)


Am 
Should I close my eyes and prophesize
                             Quick (G)
Hoping maybe some day come 
Am
Should I wet the ground with my own tears
                              Quick (G)
Crying over what's been done

 
Am  
Should I lift the dirt and plant the seed
                             Quick (G)
Even though I'll never grow
Am
Should I wet the ground with the sweat from my brow

And believe in my good work

        D
My good work

        F
My good work

        Am
My good work


  Verse 2

Am

Hey there, I'm flying up above
                                 Quick (G)
Looking down on the tired earth
Am
And I can see, I can see potential

          D
Speaking through you, speaking to you

                     Am


      Chorus
Am (Same as intro)


Verse 3

Am (Cont'D)

Power, hey do you know how it works

Hey do you know that the meek,

They shall inherit the earth

           D
You should work, you should work


             Am
(?) than the memory

   

Am (Cont'D)
Should I hit the water or stay on dry land
                             Quick (G)
Even though I've never swam  
Am
Take machete into the brush

Though at first there is no path
 
Quick (G)


Am
Taste the war paint on my tongue
                               Quick (G)
As it's dripping with my sweat
Am
Place my gaze in the future's path

Seeing things that ain't come yet

Quick (G)


Am
Hope to watch the victory dance
                                 Quick (G)      
After whole day's work is done
Am
Hope to watch the victory dance
                              Quick (G)
In the evening's setting sun


Am (Cont'D)
Hope to watch the victory dance
                        Quick (G)
Over many lives to come
Am
Hope to watch the victory dance

In the evening's setting sun

In the evening's setting sun

Hope to dance the victory dance
                        Quick (G)
Over many lives to come
Am
Hope to dance the victory dance

In the evening's setting sun
