[F]
Oh, the sisters [Bbm] of mercy, [F] they are not [C] parted, [F] oh God.
[Bb]
[F]
[A] They were waiting [Em] for me, [A] and I thought I just [Em] cannot go [C] on.
[D] [C]
And [Bb] they brought me [F] their comfort, [Eb] later [Dm] they brought me [C] this song.
[F] [C]
Oh, [F] I hope you [Bb] run into them, [F] you who've [C] been traveling [F] so [Bb]
[Eb] [Gm] [Bb]
[G] [F] [C]
[F] long.
You who [Bb] must leave [F] everything [C] you cannot
[F] control.
[Bb] [F]
It [Am] begins [Em] with your family, [Am] soon it [Em] comes round [C] your soul.
[G]
[C] [Bb] But I've been where [F] you're hanging, I [Eb] think I can [Dm] see how you'll [C] pin.
[F]
[C] When [F]
you're not feeling [Bb] holy, [F] you're low [C] [F] of sin.

[F]
[C]
[F] lay down [Bb] beside me, [F] I made my [C] confession [F] to them.
[Bb]
[F] [Am] They touched both [Em] my eyes, [Am] I [Em] touched the dew [C] on their hem.
[F] [C]
If [Bb] your life [F] is a leaf, [Eb] the seasons [Dm] tear off [C] and condemn.
[F] [C]
[E] They [F] will bind you [Bb] with love that [F] is graceful [C] and green [F] as a stem.

You [Am] can read their [Em] address by [C] the moon

If [Eb] I hear that [Dm] they've sweetened [C] your name
