[VERSE]
[Am]She came to me one morning, one lonely Sunday morning

[Am]She asked me name my foe then, I said the need within some men
To [G]fight and kill their brothers, without [Am]thought of man or god
[Am]And I begged her give me horses to trample down my enemies
So [G]eager was my passion to dev[Am]our this waste of life

So [G]easy to begin and yet im[Am]possible to end
[Am]For she, the mother of all men, who counselled me so wisely that
I [G]feared to walk alone again and [Am]asked if she would stay

Thus, [Em]having spoke, she turned away and though I found no words to say
I [D]stood and watched until I saw her [Em]black cloak disappear
[Em]My labour is no easier, but now I know I'm not alone
I [D]find new heart each time I think u[Em]pon that windy day

She [Em]came to me one morning, one lonely Sunday morning
Her [D]long hair flowing in the [Em]midwinter wind
[Em]And if one day she comes to you, drink deeply from her words so wise
Take [D]courage from her as your prize and [Em]say, 'Hello' from me
