I have been to the shadowland
Cm7/Ab
I heard the empty call
Cm7/F
of hatred, anorexia
Cm7/Ab Gm/B
Misery and alcohol
Cm7
By their hearths I warmed myself
Cm7/Ab
To escape from the winter years
Cm7/F
Until I saw in the window
Cm7/Ab Gm/B
Myself crying fire-coloured tears
Cm
Love, the only alchemy
Cm/Ab
Love, the killer of despair
Cm/F
Love, the patient samurai
Cm/Ab Gm/B
Love, the armour angels wear
Cm Cm7/Ab
Love
Cm7
They turned away the prophet
Cm7/Ab
Because she was young and full of longing
Cm7/F
Instead they turned to the magistrate
Cm7/Ab Gm/B
Who was busy yawning
Cm7
And they try to sell me holy books
Cm7/Ab
But I can see their eyes are wild
Cm7/F
I caught them pouring shame and fear
Cm7/Ab Gm/B
Into the perfect vessel of a child
Cm
Bue love's the only alchemy
Cm/Ab
Love, the killer of despair
Cm/F
Love, the true nobility
Cm/Ab Gm/B
Love, the armour angels wear
Cm
Love
Cm7/Ab
Love will make your eyes clear
Cm7/F
The order of the universe
Cm7/Ab Cm7
The only reason we are here
