Card Michael - Song Of Gomer guitar chord

Song of Gomer

Michael Card

Hosea 1-3

F#2

[ / / / / ][ / / / / ]

F#2 G#m7

Don't know what He sees in me, he is spirit, he is free

F#maj7/A# B2 G#m7 C#sus

And I, the wife of adultery, Gomer is my name

F#2 G#m7

Simply more than I can see how he keeps on forgiving me

F#maj7/A# B2 G#m7 C# F#2

How he keeps his sanity, Hosea, you're a fool

Chorus:

F#maj7/A# G#m7sus

A fool to love someone like me, a fool to suffer silently

F#maj7/A# B2 G#m7 C# F#2

But sometimes through your eyes I see I'd rather be a fool

The fondness of a father, the passion of a child

The tenderness of a loving friend, an understanding smile

All of this and so much more you've lavished on a faithless whore

I've never known love like this before, Hosea you're a fool

CHORUS

D#m /C# B2 /A#

This God of yours would not have told

G#m7 C#

To lift a love that you couldn't hold

D#m /C# B2 /A#

And though time and time again I flee

G#m7 C#sus C#

I'm always glad to see you coming after me

F#2 G#m7

[ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ]

F#maj7/A# B2 G#m7 C#

[ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ]

Simply more than I can see, how he keeps on forgiving me

The wife of adultery, and Gomer is my name
