Van Morrison - A Sense of Wonder
(Van Morrison)
C D GI walked in my great coat,
down through the days of leaves
C D GNo before, after, yes, after before
C DWe were shining our light into
Gthe days of blooming wonder
C D GIn the eternal presence, in the presence of
Dthe flame
Chorus:
G D/F# Em G/B CDidn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?
G D/F# Em G/B CDidn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright?
G D/F# Em G/B CDidn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder
Gin the flame?
On and on and on we kept singing our song
Through Newtonards and Comber, Gransha and
the Ballystockart Road
With Spike and Boffyflow, I said I would
describe the leaves for Samuel and Felicity
Rich, red browney, half burnt orange and green
chorus
Em BmIt's easy to describe the leaves in the Autumn
Em BmAnd it's oh so easy in the Spring
Em BmBut down through January and February
Am DIt's a very different thing
On and on and on, through the winter of our
discontent
When the wind blows up the collar and the ears are
frostbitten too
I said I could describe the leaves for Samuel and
what it means to you and me
You may call my love Sophia, but I call my love
Philosophy
Chorus:
Oh, didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?
Oh, didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright?
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder in
the flame?
Didn't I, didn't I come to bring you a sense of
wonder?
Oh, didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright?
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder in
the flame?
(In the flame) In the flame, child
(Didn't I come to bring you) A sense of wonder
in the flame
(Didn't I come to bring you) In the flame, child
(Didn't I come to bring you)
Wee Alfie at the Castle Picturehouse on
the Castlereagh Road
Whistling on the corner next door
Where he kept Johnny Mack Brown's horse
"O solo mio" by McGimsey
And the man who played the saw outside the city hall
Pastie suppers down at Davy's chipper
Gravy rings, wagon wheels, barmbracks, snowballs
A sense of wonder (Didn't I come to bring you)
A sense of wonder (Didn't I come to bring you)
(Didn't I come to bring you) A sense of wonder
(Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?)
(Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?)
(Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?)
(Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?)
