[Verse 1]
A D A
I have gee'd and haw'd myself into a tizzy
D A B7 E
I am yearning for a turning in the most peculiar way
A D A
Blame it on my genes, caked in tenant farming
D A E
I can't stand idle hands, as the hours waste away
[Chorus]
A
Let your love light shine
D A
Don't you hide it beneath those bushels, baby.
D A B7 E
Take that whip to task, work me all night beneath the flame.
A D A
I am yours to use, and I sure wish you would use me
D A E A
Do not let my heart just fall apart, rustin' in the rain.
[Verse 2]
A D A
I'm a hillside plow, turning one way then the other.
D A B7 E
I don't run around in circles. I work right on up the side.
A D A
Starting at the foot, going past the shoulder,
D A E A
'til I slit the rows in the whole hillside.
[Chorus 2]
A
Let your love light shine
D A
Don't you hide it beneath those bushels, baby.
D A B7 E
Take that whip to task, work me all night beneath the flame.
A D A
I am yours to use, and I sure wish you would use me
D A E A
Do not let my heart just fall apart, rustin' in the rain.
Key Change to B
[Verse 3]
B E B
I have gee'd and haw'd for you and it sure suits me.
E B C# F#
I am pawing with impatience at the thought of trace chains.
B E B
I've grit my bit. Running half rows just for thinking
E B F# B
Getting hunkered down trying to get up through the hame.
[Chorus 3]
B
Let your love light shine
E B
Don't you hide it beneath those bushels, baby.
E B C# F#
Take that whip to task, work me all night beneath the flame.
B E B
I am yours to use, and I sure wish you would use me
E B F# B
Do not let my heart just fall apart, rustin' in the rain.
