Give Away © 2007 Bradley/Pearson/Keaggy
INTRO
V1
Found a red umbrella on the street tonight
Shelterin’ me from the city’s tears
Under the mercy everything will be all right
Who knows? I just might dance on water here.
CH
Don’t keep what you got to give away
Don’t hold onto it another day
Don’t keep what you got to give away, give away
Don’t be a rich man bleeding.
INTRO
V2
Jet black limousine pulls up on the right
Tinted-window coffin, late for meetings
Glad NYC’s got her arms round me tonight
Am I a beggar or this rich man bleeding?
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
V3
A woman with a suitcase under wet, black skies
Young but sadly old beyond her years
Pass her my umbrella and a smile fills her eyes
One act of grace can stop a flood of tears
CHORUS OUT
