Murder Song

Bm F#m Bm F#m Bm F#m Bm I awoke to the feeling That something had arrived F#m Watched the postman come and go Like the flowing of the tide Bm Yes, I opened up your letter On Thursday afternoon F#m I'd been dreaming up an answer To the thing I asked of you Bm But your writing's full of spaces Think you mean for me to find F# Some wisdom in the silence Lovers lost between the lines (Humming) Bm F#m Bm F#m Mmmh Mmmh Mmmh Mmmh Bm Tried to forget about the letter But it kept me up at night F#m Heard it calling from the drawing room "Read by candlе light" Bm So I took it to the attic Held it undernеath the flame F#m And caught a glimpse of something Right where you'd signed your name Bm I saw a face illuminated Its expression made me cry F# For I looked right into your eyes And knew this was goodbye Bm Yes a face illuminated It almost made me cry F# You have killed the thing you loved And now you have to die (Humming) Bm F#m Bm F#m Bm F# Bm F#m Bm F#m
