Agondonter ('Tisn't Easy Being)

1.

        Bm         F#m  G
'Tisn't easy being Agon-donter

                 Bm       G        F#m
Heaven won't you come and raise my roof

        Bm        F#m           G
Gets so hard to believe without seeing

             D7         G
Send me your undeniable proof

           D           Ddim         D
(I seem to keep losin' track of the troof)

2.

       Bm            F#m         G
Yes, I know the mere fact that existence exists

        Bm          G                F#m
Or that love can be found means it's true

     Bm         F#m       G
But what I want has to be incontrovertible

         D7            G
I want a postcard from You

           D         Ddim        D
(Won't you send me a postcard or two)

3.

       Bm      F#m           G
I've already received some Enlightenment

        Bm         G               F#m
Figured out how to tell right from wrong

    Bm          F#m        G
But keeping the faith is exhausting I need

       D7             G
To be shown what I've known all along

        D              Ddim      D
(Send a sample of what makes You strong)

4.

     Bm             F#m     G
I've monitored your miracle courses

     Bm         G      F#m
Understand intellectually

  Bm             F#m        G
I know there are angels and midwayers everywhere

D7                          G
Can't they just stop by for tea?

          D         Ddim        D
(I'll schedule them Thursday at three)
