  A            D

I saw from the cathedral

Bm                E

You were watching me

      A            D 

And I saw from the cathedral

Bm            E

What I should be

           D 

So take my lies

            A

And take my time

               E      D               A     

'Cause all the others want to take my life



      A              D

And I watch, with an intent, basic

Bm                E

It's the same for you

              A

You hold your hand

         D

And it's all fine - laced and

Bm                     E

What would you make me do



           D

So take my lies

            A

And take my time

               E      D               A

'Cause all the others want to take my life



E               A

Serious for the winter time

E             A

To wrench my soul

E                  A

Whole cotton whole cotton ears

      D 

But I know there must be

       Bm

Yes, I know there must be

       E4                            E

Yes, I know there must be a place to go



        A            D

You saw me, from the cathedral

Bm                   E 

Well, I'm an ancient heart

           A             D     

Yes, you saw me from the cathedral

Bm                   E  

And here we are just falling apart



          D

You catch me

      Bm 

I am tired

       E4       E     A  D  Bm  E  A  D  Bm  E 

I want all that you are



      A            D 

And I saw from the cathedral

Bm               E

You were leaving me

      A            D      

And I saw from the cathedral

Bm                   E

You could not see to see

            A

So take my lies

            D  

And take my time

               E 

'Cause all the others 

D               A

Want to take my life
