Song of Gomer

Song of Gomer

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
