{intro} 
  
  
      G           C(9)       G       G 
I can tell by the way you're walking 
         C(9)       G    D   D 
That you don't want company 
     G        C(9)          G               G 
I'll let you alone and I'll let you walk on 
            C(9)     G           D   D 
And in your own good time you'll be 
  
C(9)           G       Em7      Em7 
Back where the sun can find you 
C(9)      G            D    D 
Under the wise wishing tree 
G                    C(9)           G         G 
And with all of them made we'll lie under the shade 
    C(9)      G    D   D 
And call it a jubilee 
  
  
And I can tell by the way you're talking 
That the past isn't letting you go 
But there's only so long you can take it all on 
And then the wrong's gotta be on its own 
  
And when you're ready to leave it behind you 
You'll look back, and all that you'll see 
Is the wreckage and rust that you left in the dust 
        C(9)       D       G  G 
On your way to the jubilee 
  
  
G  C(9)  G   G    C(9)  G   D   D 
{instrumental} 
  
  
And I can tell by the way you're listening 
That you're still expecting to hear 
Your name being called like a summons to all 
Who have failed to account for their doubts and their fears 
  
They can't add up to much without you 
And so if it were just up to me 
I'd take hold of your hand, saying come hear the band 
          C(9)        D       G  G 
Play your song at the jubilee 
  
  
C(9)  G  Em7  Em7    C(9)  G   D   D 
{instrumental} 
G  C(9)  G    G      C(9)  G   D   D 
{instrumental} 
  
  
And I can tell by the way you're searching 
For something you can't even name 
That you haven't been able to come to the table 
Simply glad that you came 
  
And when you feel like this try to imagine 
That we're all like frail boats on the sea 
Just scanning the night for that great guiding light 
  C(9)         G   D   D 
Announcing the jubilee 
  
  
And I can tell by the way you're standing 
With your eyes filling with tears 
That it's habit alone keeps you turning for home 
Even though your home is right here 
  
Where the people who love you are gathered 
Under the wise wishing tree 
May we all be considered then straight on delivered 
C(9)        G   D   D 
Down to the jubilee 
  
  
           C(9)       G            Em7     Em7 
'Cause the people who love you are waiting 
            C(9)         G            D {hold for 1.5 measures} 
And they'll wait just as long as need be 
        G             C(9)           G       G 
When we look back and say those were halcyon days 
      C(9)          D   G   G 
We're talking 'bout jubilee 
  
  
G  C(9)  G    G      C(9)  G   D   D 
{instrumental} 
G  C(9)  G    G      C(9)  D   G   G. 
{instrumental}
