 And it certainly gives the chord a fuller sound, but I don't think Matt plays the low E
 on that chord - at least not at the start.
 It's down to personal choice, I think. It certainly might be useful to substitute C/G in
 the later verses where it all gets a bit loud
 and exciting.
Thank  you for the invite
 To dance  on golden streets
Leave  the broken skyline
 And charcoal  cloud debris
I  would likely join  you if I weren't busy
 But tonight  my confession  list is long
 I will sit  back, relax, and hold  my head to the sun
Sit  back, relax, and hold  my head to the sun.
We  will sing to thunder
Clap  as the earth shakes
Hug  under a hurricane
 As we bypass  the fiery lake
I  will read my scripture  in Dostoevsky
Change  my television  to twenty three
 I will sit  back, relax and wait  for what's coming to me
Sit  back, relax and hold  my head to the sea.
We  will leave  our sails  on trees
While chariots  swing by  the breeze
Lift  our lamps  unto  the streets
 May all  the kings  and soldiers see
 Our lives are lonely  enough  without destruction
Calm  your cares and families
 And I  will hold the morning for you
Take  the time for townships and classics  to be read
Finding  all the soft skin that will fit  in a feather bed
Let  me spread my paper  and sleep for centuries
 The door  will be there if  you choose to return
 I will sit  back, relax and watch  the mountaintops  burn
Sit  back, relax and wait  for my voice to be heard.
We  will leave  our sails  on trees
While chariots  swing by  the breeze
Lift  our lamps  unto  the streets
 May all  the kings  and soldiers see
All  our lives are lonely  enough  without destruction
Calm  your cares and families
 And be  part of division
All  our lives are lonely  enough  without destruction
Calm  your cares and families
 And I  will hold the morning for you
 And I  will hold the morning for you
