_ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
_ Oh, the Sisters [F#] of Mercy, [C#] they are not [G#] departed [C#] or _ [F#] gone.
_ _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ [Fm] They were waiting for [Cm] me when [Fm] I thought that [Cm] I just [G#] can't go on.
_ [C#] _ [G#] _ _ _
_ And [F#] they brought me [C#] their comfort, [B] and later [A#m] they brought me [G#] this song.
[C#] _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _
_ _ [C#] Oh, I hope you [F#] run [C#] into them, you who've [G#] been traveling [C#] so _ [F#] long. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[C#] _ _ _ _ _ _
[G#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[C#] Yes, you must [F#] leave [C#] everything that [G#] you cannot [C#] control.
_ _ [F#] _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] It begins with [Cm] your family, [Fm] but soon it [Cm] comes around to [G#] your _ [C#] soul. _
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ _
[F#] Well, I've been where [C#] you're hanging, [B] and I think I [A#m] can see how [G#] you'll be in.
[C#] _ _
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ _
[C#] When you're not feeling [F#] _
holy, [C#] your [G#] loneliness is [C#] at your sin.
[F#] _ _
_ _ _ Ooh, _ _ _ _ _ ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, [C#] ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, [G#] _ _
_ ooh. _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#] Well, they lay down [F#] beside [C#] me, I made my [G#] _ confessions [C#] to them.
[F#] _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ _ _ [Fm] They touch both [Cm] my eyes, [Fm] and I touch the [D#] dew on [G#] their [C#] hand.
_ _ [G#] _ _
_ _ _ [F#] If your life is [C#] a leaf that [B] the seasons [A#m] tear off then [G#] condemn
_ _ They _ _ _ _ _ [C#] will bind you with love that is graceful [G#] and green as [C#] a stem
[F#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ _ Ooooooo
When _ _ _ _
_ [C#] I left they [F#] were sleeping [C#] and I hope you [G#] run into [C#] them soon
[F#] _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] Don't turn on [Cm] the lights [Fm] you can read [Cm] their dress [G#] by the wound
[C#] _ _
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ _
[F#] And you won't make [C#] me jealous if [B] I find [A#m] they've sweetened [G#] the line. _ _
_ _ _ _ _
We [C#] weren't lovers [F#] like that, and [C#] besides, it [G#] would still [C#] be alright.
[F#] _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _
We weren't lovers [F#] like that, and [C#] besides, it [G#] would still be [C#] alright.
