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
