Why do you stand by the [E] window, _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ Abandoned to beauty [A] and pride? _ _
The thorn of the night _ [E] in your bosom, _ _ _ [D] The spear of the [A] age in your side, _
_ [E] _ [A] Lost in the rages of [E] _ fragrance, _ Or [D] lost in the rites of [A] _ remorse,
_ _ _ _ Lost in the waves of [E] his sickness, _ _ _ [D] That loosens the high [A] silver _ nerves.
_ [E] O chosen _ love, O frozen _ love, O [D]
tangle of [E] [A] matter and ghosts,
_ _ _ [E] O darling of angels, _ _ Demons and saints, [D] And the whole broken [A] _ hearted host,
_ _ Gentle [E] this soul, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ And come [A] forth from your cloud of [E] unknowing, _ _ _
[D] And kiss the cheek of [A] the moon, _ _ The new _ Jerusalem [E] _ glowing. _ _
[D] Why tarry all [A] night in this room, _ _ _ And leave no word _ of [E] discomfort,
_ Or _ leave [D] no _ observer to [A] _ mourn, _ But climb on your [C#m] tears and be [E] silent, _ _
Like [D] the rose on [F#m] its ladder [Bm] [A] of thorn. _ _
[E] O chosen _ love, O frozen _ love, [D] O tangle of matter [A] and ghosts, _
O [E] darling of _ angels, _ Demons and saints, [D] And the whole broken _ [Bm] [A] hearted host, _
Gentle [E] this soul, _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] Then lay your [E] rose on the fire,
_ _ _ The [D] fire give up to [A] the sun, _ _ _ The sun give over to [E] _
splendor,
_ In [D] the arms of [F#m] the high [G#] [A] holy _ one, _ For the holy one dreams [E] of a letter,
_ _ _ [D] Ah dreams of a _ [A] letter's death, _ _ _ _ Bless the _ continuous [E] _
stutter,
_ Of [D] the word being [A] made [G#] [A] into flesh.
_ O [E] chosen love, _ O frozen _ love, [Bm] O tangle [D] [A] of matter and ghosts,
_ _ O [E] _
darling of angels, _ _ Demons and saints, And [D] the whole broken [F#m] _ [G#] [A] hearted host,
_ [E] [A] Gentle [E] this soul, _ _ _
[D] _ _ Gentle [A] _ _
[E] _ this [A] _ _
soul. _ _ _ _ _

_ _ [E] O darling of angels, _ Demons and saints, [D] And the whole [Bm] broken _ _ [A] hearted host,
_ _ [E] [F#m] Gentle [E] this _ soul, _ _ _
[D] _ _ Gentle [C#m] _ _
_ [E] _ this [A] _ _
soul. _ _ _ _
