Verse 1

G G#dim Am G#m Am Do you remember all of those pledges G G#dim Am G#m Am That we pledged in the passionate night C G F# G Ah they're soiled now, they're torn at the edges Cm G#7 A#7 G#7 G7 Like moths on a stale yellow light G G#dim Am G#m Am No penance serves to renew them G G#dim Am G#m Am No massive transfusions of trust C G F# G Why not even revenge can undo them Cm G So twisted these vows and so crushed

Chorus

G Bb And you say you've been humbled in love F Cut down in your love Bb F Forced to kneel in the mud next to me Bb F Ah but why so bitterly turn from the one Am Fmaj7 E Who kneels there as deeply as thee

Verse 2

G G#dim Am G#m Am Children have taken these pledges G G#dim Am G#m Am They have ferried them out of the past C G F# G Oh beyond all the graves and the hedges Cm G#7 A#7 G#7 G7 Where love must go hiding at last G G#dim Am G#m Am And here where there is no description G G#dim Am G#m Am Oh here in the moment at hand C G F# G No sinner need rise up forgiven Cm G No victim need limp to the stand

Verse 3

G G#dim Am G#m Am And look dear heart, look at the virgin G G#dim Am G#m Am Look how she welcomes him into her gown C G F# G Yes, and mark how the stranger's cold armour Cm G#7 A#7 G#7 G7 Dissolves like a star falling down G G#dim Am G#m Am Why trade this vision for desire G G#dim Am G#m Am When you may have them both C G F# G You will never see a man this naked Cm G I will never hold a woman this close
