Daniel and The Sacred Harp


Daniel and The Sacred Harp

> G D
Chorus: Daniel Daniel and the sacred harp
> C G
Dancing through the clover
> C Bm
Daniel Daniel would you mind
> D7 G
If I look it over

> G C D7 G
Verse: I heard of this famous harp years ago back in my home town
> C D Em
But I sure never thought old Daniel be the one to come and bring it around
> G D C G
Tell me Daniel how the harp came into your posession
> D C G
Are you one of the chosen few who will dance in the the procession
> C Em
and Daniel said
> G D G D
The sacred harp was handed down from father unto son
> C Bm Am D7
And need not be related I could never be the one
> G D G D
So I saved up all my silver and took it to a man
> C Bm Am G
Who said he could deliver the harp straight into my hand
> Em A
Three years he waited patiently
> D C
till he returned with the harp from the sea of Galilee
> Em A D C
He said there is just one thing I must ask but not a personal grief
> Bm Am
But Daniel wouldn't listen he just grabbed the harp
> D7 G
And said take what you may need.
> G C D G
Now Daniel looked quite satisfied and the harp it seemed to glow
> C D Em
But the price that Daniel had really paid he did not even know
> G D7
Back to his brother he took his troubled mind
> C G
And he said oh brother I'm in a bind
> D7 C G
But the brother would not hear his tale he said Old Daniel's gonna land in jail
> G D G D
So to his father Daniel did run And he said oh father what have I done
> C Bm Am
His father said son you've given in you know you won your harp
> G
But you lost ??? ???
> Em A
Then Daniel took the harp and went high on the hill
> D C
And he blew across the meadow like a whipperwhill
> Em A
He played out his heart just the time to pass
> D C G
But as he looked to the ground he noticed no shadow did he cast
