Introdução:
E C#m
I had a vision in the chapel
E G#m
Flame flickered on your forehead like an apple
F# G#m B
When the morning came I was enthralled by your movement
C#m F#
But I was scared, I wrote a letter
C#m G#m
To articulate my thoughts a little better
F# B
When the time came for speaking my mind it was gone
E
The garden's overgrown
B
Is the fact of the matter
E
And now it's just a field behind the house
B
Where the creepers kinda swallow the light
C#m E
Where you wait for a talking snake
B
For a calendar day - something you can rely on
G#m
You can steady the scale
B F#
With my heart in a pail if I'm wrong
E C#m
When I was young and not a cynic
E G#m
I felt a gravity beyond the city limit
F# G#m B
In the violent heart I couldn't start to explain it
C#m F#
But all my lovers turned to friends
C#m G#m
and I'm in London singing "if it be your will" again
F# B
When the time came for speaking my mind it was gone

C#m G#m
I miss my childhood house
E
Where my heart slowed down
B G#m
I could take control of myself there
E C#m G#m
Since our childhood homes
E C#m
Are apartments though
G#m B G#m F#
I've been finding I don't feel it the same way now
