Intro of Lady Magdelene for Fingerstyle guitar

Chords used in this song

Verse 1
[A]The man on the [E]right is a man un[A]done
He'd give you his soul if you asked him for [D]some.
A child in his way for he needs to [A]believe
[E]That love is a song for each man to [A]sing.
The man on the [E]left is a prize un[A]won
A candle unlit and a song un[D]sung.
Believing that love is a dreamer's [A]dream,
[E]The man on the left the me in be[A]tween.
Chorus
Lady Magdelene, I can hear your distant trumpet
Calling from the morning mountain, 
Singing to the passing river. 
[D]Take me home, show me peaceful days before my [A]youth has gone.
Verse 2
The man in bet[E]ween waits between the [A]two
Not hearing the lie and not seeing the [D]true.
Unknowing what is and denying what [A]seems
[E]And there he will sleep the man in bet[A]ween.
Chorus
Lady Magdelene, I can hear your distant trumpet
Calling from the morning mountain,
Singing to the passing ri[D]ver.
Take me home, show me peaceful days before my [A]youth has gone.
Lady Magdelene, make the sound of silent thunder
Calling from the lips of Abraham
Make a sound that we may wonder, [D]where we are.
Take us to you soul for we have [A]wandered far.
Verse 3
The man on the [E]right was a man un[A]done
The man on the left like a prize un[D]won.
And God only knows what their time will [A]bring
[E]Or what will become of the man in be[A]tween.
