Am

[Verse 1]
---------------------
   Am      G C    Dmadd9       C
Forgive me,  Hera, I     cannot stay
   Dmadd9             C
He cut   out my tongue
         E             Am
There is nothing to say
Am         G    C
Love me, oh Lord
   Dmadd9       C
He threw me away
   Dmadd9            C
He laughed at my sins
       E               Am
In his arms I must stay

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Am
  He wrote
Em Am/E
       I am broke
Am       Em         Am
  Please send for me
         Em
But I am broken too
Am/E              Am
    And spoken for
      Em        Am
Do not  tempt me

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Am         G     C
Her skin is white
        Dmadd9       C
And I'm light as the sun
   Dmadd9           C       E               Am
So holy light shines  on the things you have done

[Bridge (1)]
---------------------
F            G       E              Am
So I asked him how he became this man
F         G             E                  Am
How did he learn to hold fruit in his hands?
    C                     Dm
And where is the lamb that gave you your name?
C                             E           Am
He had to leave though I begged him to stay
F           G       E
Left me alone when I needed the light
Am F              G      E
   Fell to my knees and I wept for my life
Am   C                   Dm
  If he had've stayed you might understand
   C                                    E            Am
If he had've stayed you never would have taken my hand

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Am
  He wrote
Em Am/E        Am       Em         Am
       Oh love,  please send for me
         Em
But I am broken too
Am/E              Am
    And spoken for
      Em
Do not  tempt me

[Interlude]
---------------------
Am    C                     Dm
  And where is the lamb that gave you your name?
C                             E           Am
He had to leave though I begged him to stay

[Bridge (2)]
---------------------
F                G      E           Am
Begged him to stay in my cold wooden grip
F            G           E                 Am
Begged him to stay by the light of this ship
C                        Dm
Me fighting him, fighting like fighting dawn
        C                           E              Am
And the waves came and stole him and took him to war

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
Am
  He wrote
Em Am/E
       I'm broke
Am       Em         Am
  Please send for me
        Em
But I'm broken too
Am/E              Am
    And spoken for
      Em
Do not  tempt me

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Am   Am      G C    Dmadd9       C
  Forgive me,  here, I     cannot stay
Dmadd9             C
Cut   out my tongue
         E              Am
There is nothing to save
Am         G     C   Dmadd9       C
Love me, oh Lord,  he threw me away
   Dmadd9            C
He laughed at my sins
       E              Am
In his arms I must say

[Chorus (4)]
---------------------
Am
  We write
Em Am/E
       That's alright
Am  Em            Am
  I miss his smell
   Em   Am/E              Am
We speak    when spoken to
    Em            Am
And that suits us well

[Outro]
---------------------
Am     Em           Am
  That suits us well
Em     Am
  That suits me well
