Hands
(from the CD "Spirit")
Lyrics by Jewel Kilcher
Music by Jewel Kilcher & Patrick Leonard
Transcription by Peter Farrell ([email protected])

CAPO 1

VERSE 1
Em C
If I could tell the world just one thing
G D
It would be that we're all OK
Em C
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
G D
And useless in times like these
Em C
I won't be made useless
Em C
I won't be idle with despair
Em C
I will gather myself around my faith
G D
For light does the darkness most fear

CHORUS
G D Am
My hands are small, I know
G D C
But they're not yours, they are my own
G D Am
But they're not yours, they are my own
G D Em
And I am never broken

VERSE 2
Em C
Poverty stole your golden shoes
G D
But it didn't steal your laughter
Em C
And heartache came to visit me
G D
But I knew it wasn't ever after
Em C
We'll fight, not out of spite
G D
For someone must stand up for what's right
Em C
'Cause where there's a man who has no voice
G D
There ours shall go singing

CHORUS
G D Am
My hands are small I know
G D C
But they're not yours, they are my own
G D Am
But they're not yours, they are my own
G D Em
And I am never broken

BRIDGE
G D Em C
In the end only kindness matters
G D Em C
In the end only kindness matters
Em C G D
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
Em C G D
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
Em C G D
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

CHORUS
G D Am
My hands are small I know
G D C
But they're not yours, they are my own
G D Am
But they're not yours, they are my own
G D Em
And I am never broken
G D Am
My hands are small I know
G D C
But they're not yours, they are my own
G D Am
But they're not yours, they are my own
G D Em
And I am never broken
G D Em
We are never broken

OUTRO
We are God's eyes For this section, keeping with the rythm,
God's hands just keep repeating the
transition from:
God's mind
We are God's eyes Em --- C
God's hands
God's heart and fade out.
We are God's eyes
God's hands
God's eyes
We are God's hands
We are God's hands

Innocence Maintained

by Jewel Kilcher

D
Ophelia drowned in the water
D
Crushed by her own weight
C
Hitler loved the blue eyed boys
C
and it drove him to hate
D
Birds always grow silent before the night descends
D G
Cause nature has a funny way of breaking what does not bend

I saw a man with a hole he could not fill
He couldn't make the world work for him and didn't work and still (??)
There was a hole inside his soul (same as verse 1)
that whiskey could not stillSo he found himself a girl to love
while babies choked in the windowsill

D C
We've made houses for hatred
G
It's time we make a place where
D C G
People's souls may be seen and made safe
D C G
be careful with each other these fragile flames
D C D C G
Innocence can't be lost it just needs to be maintained

Enter From The East
by Jewel
Tabbed by Katie McCurry

Picking pattern is standard travis picking- there are a few variations
but you can pick it up pretty easily from hearing it-
don?t hit the 1st (high) string any except for the G in the bridge- you
can hear it on the recording ( someone has the
mediadome version on RA- sorry for the lack of details)

If 6 is the lowest string & 1 is the highest - it's like this:
"Pinch" 6&2 (play them at the same time) then 4,3,6,2,4
Obviously - 6 is just your base string & it would actually be 5 for C chords -
also - this is just fro this song- if you were playing all the strings - it
would be pinch base & 1, then 3,2, base, 1,3.

"Entered From the East" Jewel Kilcher 1997(corrected)
Transcribed By Katie McCurry ([email protected])

Verse
G
I went out a-wandering
Beneath an unknown sky
Em
The heavens all shook violently
You caught my eye

A strange fruit fell
And struck me to the core
My heart became a single flame
It wanted nothing more

Chorus:
C G
Stranger, enter from the east
C G
Stranger, step inside this place
G Em G
Oh, And hold me..........hold me

The clock became a bullet hole
Cruel and unkind
It hurt me with its second hand
Alone another night

C G
Stranger, enter from the east
C G
Stranger, step inside this place

Bridge:
F D C
Blue.....Is that you?
C G
Well, don't bother knocking on my door this time
F D
Blue.....
C
Go be true for someone else
G
There's no room inside this heart of mine

F G
My heart has four empty rooms
F G
Three wait for lightning and one waits for you

I must have you all to myself
Feel the full weight of your skin
I'll hollow out my insides
To place you in

Stranger, enter from the east
Stranger, step inside this place
And hold me.......hold me
Hold me

At the end it just goes between Em & G through all the Oohs & Aahs :)
It ends on G
