This is the first joint project by Stefan and Koos. And it looks promising...

Holy ground

INTRO:
A6    G6sus2     D (or D' or D'')
A6    G6sus2     D (or D' or D'')

VERSE:
A6 G6sus2                    D
        when the songs flow down like a river
A6 G6sus2                   D
        and the words cut through
A6 G6sus2         D
        dreams fly around me
A6             G6sus2            D
         I'm a happy  man in the world

I love the sound of the bodhran, kicking in behind me
it heats my blood
when the trumpet flies above me
I'm a happy man in the world


CHORUS:
D1       A7#5          G9         Gmaj9
                   It's  the holy      ground
D1       A7#5          G9         Gmaj9
         I'm  looking for
D1       A7#5          G9         Gmaj9
                    I wake up every morning
D1       A7#5          G9         Gmaj9
               and ask for more
A7       A7add13
A6             G6sus2            D
         I'm a happy  man in the world

sometimes vultures hover 
over wounded angels lives
black dog comes to see me
darkness fills my world

so I close my eyes and listen 
to a jamaican freedom song
I move my body to the rhythm
I'm a happy man in the world


it's the holy ground I'm looking for
I wake up every morning
and ask for more
I'm a happy man in the world


sometimes I fly with the white swan to my
liffey home
there the river sings to me
I'm a happy man in the world
