Verse 1
The man (D major) who lived (B minor) to live alone
His (G major) heart he ruled to know but (D major) one
His (B minor) name was none he (D major) took no ground
He (B minor) came and went without (D major) a sound
One (B minor) day the man did (A major) sing a song
Then (B minor) stood and wait for (F sharp minor) her to come (A major)
For (D major) years they sang but
(B minor) he would not know,
From (G major) some he took and then let (D major) go
One (B minor) day our lady (D major) did divine
To (B minor) move the air most (D major) true and fine
He (B minor) drew but found his (A major) voice had gone
"Dear (B minor) god" he thought
"I've stood (A major) too long"
The (F sharp minor) crimes, (B minor) the (F sharp minor) crimes
of the (G major) fool (A major) against the fool (D major)
the (F sharp minor) cries, (B minor) the (F sharp minor) cries of the (G major) man
who (E minor) lived by The Rule (A major)
(D major) To die by the (A major) rule,
You (D major) offered everything to (B minor) me
I (G major) took, you know I took for free (D major)
The morning (B minor) broke and (D major) flood in blue,
I (B minor) knew before the (D major) day was through
I'd (B minor) tear into the (A major) heart of you
I (B minor) tore into the (A major) heart of you
A (F sharp minor) pair, (B minor) a (F sharp minor) pair of young
(G major) lives (A major) becomes a (D major) love
And (F sharp minor) there, (B minor) (F sharp minor) there they've (G major) won
Oh (E minor) how is it (A major) done?
(D major) How is it (A major) done?
I (D major) wait to look in (B minor) to your eyes
I (G major) wait for you to look at mine (D major)
My (B minor) love, oh love I (D major) long to see
I'll (B minor) offer all I (D major) have to thee
And you'll (B minor) tear into the (A major) heart of me
You'll (B minor) tear into the heart (A major) of me.
