spence hood – forgive me chester lyrics
[verse 1]
comes a maiden, shoulders laiden with a wrong she cannot right
“how in sweet emmanuel’s name am i supposed to sleep tonight?”
so i told her “weeping’s for the weary, and you don’t seem the type
to withhold my happy ending, gimme something better to write”
[chorus]
forgive me, chester, yesterday’s bread
is all i can afford today
brother you hang tight, don’t let the melancholy bite
and i’ll chase the sinners away
[verse 2]
comes a man with scars bone+deep and a conscience far from clean
though he wore them proud and spokе rather loudly of things i had never seen
see talеs like his make the world go ‘round, for not even i am immune to the pain of a life well+lived hiding under a sunday tune
[chorus]
forgive me, chester, yesterday’s bread
is all i can afford today
brother you hang tight, don’t let the melancholy bite
and i’ll chase the sinners away
[bridge]
comes a boy with ribs the cage of a beast i cannot tame
though the lines on his face left no sp+ce for a stranger to write his name
so days i sat with the boy, and not for lack of attempt
did my pen stay dry and his story remain exempt
[chorus]
forgive me, chester, yesterday’s bread
is all i can afford today
brother you hang tight, don’t let the melancholy bite
and i’ll chase the sinners away
brother you hang tight, don’t let the melancholy bite
and i’ll chase the sinners away
