 Standing 
Written and performed By Patty Griffin on " Silver Bell" 
due out in January

Alright folks, I know it's a bit premature but this a GREAT, almost 
spiritual, bluesy number off the new album. If you get a chance download it 
off napster and give it a spin!!! Play this really slow and bluesy!

E
I'm standing in the shadow of the hill
A                               E
I'm standing in the shadow of the hill
B7
Feel the fear everywhere
A
Hope it don't get me killed
E                   A           E
I'm standing in the shadow of the hill


E
I'm standing in the shadow walking blind
A                   E
I've been unfair & unkind
B7
Turned away from your suffering 
A
far too many times 
E                   A                   E
Now I'm standing in the shadow walking blind

    A                   E
Sister, brother, there's a fire on the hill
    A                   
And it's burning like a lantern
    B7
Making all this time stand still

E                           A
I'm standing, I'm standing, I'm standing
E
I'm standing, 
B7
standing, 
( right here the key of the song changes I think to Bb but i like to keep 
playing the same E chords. do whatever you like....you will have to hear the 
song though if you want to change the key..its tricky.)
standing


Mother, I am weak but I am strong
Standing in the darkness this long
But in the deepest darkness I listen to your song
Mother I am weak but I am strong

I'm standing, and I'm standing, I'm standing 
I'm standing, standing, standing, I'm standing
Standing in the shadow of the hill
