     G                 D      G
Can you fix this?  It's a broken heart
       Em                D     G
It was fine, but it just fell apart
       Em              C          G
It was mine, but now I give it to you
               Em              D        G
'Cause you can fix it, you know what to do

        C    G         D     G
CHORUS:  Let your love cover me
        Em              D     G
         Like a pair of angel wings
        Em   D/C   C      G
         You are my family
        Em          D   G
         You are my family

We stood outside in the summer rain
Different people with a common pain
A simple box in the hard red clay
Where we left him to always remain

CHORUS

VIOLIN SOLO (same chords as CHORUS)

And the child who played with the moon and stars
Waves a snatch of hay in a common barn
In the lonely house of Adam's fall
Lies a child, it's just a child, that's all
Crying

CHORUS

Repeat last 2 lines

Almost EVERY time the G becomes an Em, Dar fingerpicks the same little walkdown that's in the intro.

I replaced the Bm in Ben's version with a D/C (also a Bm7) because it sounds better fingerpicked. It looks like this:

 E A D G B e
