Chord Gitar dan Lirik Lagu Medicinals Oleh PJ Harvey

Capo 1st fret

(Verse 1)

I was

walking through the National Mall
Thinking about medicinals, how they used to grow there
When the ground was a marshland
Undisturbed by human hands, and I heard their voices

(Chorus 1)

The

sumac said, “We are always here”
The witch hazel, “We are always here”
The sassafras, “We are always here”
The bluestem grasses always here

(Verse 2)

I looked about, what did I see?
Medicinals growin’ around me, rising from the gravel
Sumac and the witch hazel
Come to soothe our pain, our souls, come to soothe our troubles

(Chorus 2)

The

sumac said, “We are always here”
The witch hazel, “We are always here”
The sassafras, “We are always here”
The bluestem grasses always here

(Outro)

But do you

see that woman, sitting in the wheelchair?
With her Redskins cap on backwards, what’s that she’s singing?
As from inside a paper wrapper, she sips from a bottle
A new painkiller, for the native people
