Say A Good Word

Iris DeMent

[Verse 1]
Home's become such an angry place
Friends now wear an enemy's face
The chasm's grown so wide
Words of wisdom from a different time:
"An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind"
The same is true today

[Pre-Chorus]
We drown in ill will or we swallow the pill
And go on and say a good word to them now

[Chorus]
Say a good word
Say a good word
Say a good word
Say a good word
Say a good word
Say a good word
Say a good word

[Verse 2]
Nobody gets everything right
Shine your love light
Go on and say a good word to them now
Life is so hard, who isn't scarred
Go on and say a good word to them now

[Bridge]
Magnanimity, magnanimity, oh-oh-oh-oh
Magnanimity, magnanimity, oh-oh-oh-oh

[Pre-Chorus]
It's not too late, don't hesitate
Go on and say a good word to them now

[Chorus]
Say a good word
Say a good word
Say a good word
Say a good word
Say a good word (Say a good word to them)
Say a good word (Say a good word to them)
Say a good word (Say a good word to them)
Say a good word (Say a good word to them)
Say a good word
