Karaoké The Stable Song Gregory Alan Isakov

Remember when our songs were just like prayers

Like gospel hymns that you caught in the air

Come down, come down sweet reverence

Unto my simple house and ring

And ring

Ring like silver

Ring like gold

Ring out those ghosts on the Ohio

Ring like clear day weddin' bells

Were we the belly of the beast or the sword that fell

We'll never tell mmh

Come to me clear and cold on some sea

Watch the world spin in waves

Mad machine

Now I've gone crazy couldn't you tell

You threw stones at the stars but the whole sky fell

Now I'm covered up in straw belly up on a table

Well I drank and sang and passed in the stable

Hmm mmh

Hmm mmh mmh mmh

Hmm mmh hmm

Mmh mmh

Hmm mmh

Mmh mmh mmh

Mmh mmh

That tall grass grows high and brown

Well I dragged you straight in the muddy ground

And you sent me back to where I roam

Well I cursed and I cried but now I know

Oh now I know

And I ran back to that hollow again

The moon was just a sliver back then

And I ached for my heart like some tin man

When it came oh it beat and it boiled and it rang

Oh it's ringin'

Ring like crazy

Ring like hell

Turn me back into that wild-haired gale

Ring like silver

Ring like gold

Turn these diamonds straight back into coal

Turn these diamonds straight back into coal

Hmm mmh

Mmh mmh mmh mmh
