^EmWhen stunted hand earns place with man by mere monstrosity ^EmAlarms are struck and shore is shook by sheer atrocity ^GA cure I ^Amknow that soothes the ^Csoul, does so imp^Eossibly ^EmA moment's silence when my ^Cbaby puts their mouth on ^EmMe and my babe relax and catch the manic rhapsody ^EmAll reason flown, as God looks on in abject apathy ^GA squall and ^Amall of me is a p^Crayer in perfect p^Eiety ^EmA moment's silence when my ^Cbaby puts their mouth on me

Em [Chorus 1]

When the ^Emmeaning's gone, there is ^Gmaj7clarity And the ^Creason comes on the c^Amommon tongue of your ^Emlovin' me And it's ^Emeasy done, our little r^Gmaj7emedy And the ^Creason comes on the ^Amcommon tongue of your ^Emlovin' me

Em [Verse 2]

^EmWhat yields the need for those who lead us oh so morally ^EmThose that would view the same we do through their deformity ^GWho view the ^Amdeed as power's cr^Ceed, as pure auth^Eority ^EmThis moment's silence when my b^Caby puts their mouth on me

Em [Chorus 2]

Since it al^Eml begun, to it's reck^Gmaj7oning There the ^Creason comes on the ^Amcommon tongue of your ^Emlovin' me Be ^Emthankful some know it ^Gmaj7lovingly There the ^Creason comes on the ^Amcommon tongue of your ^Emlovin' me

[Interlude] Em Em Em Em G G G G (x4) Em [Chorus 3]

Like a ^Emheathen clung to the ^Gmaj7homily Let the ^Creason come on the ^Amcommon tongue of your ^Emlovin' me So s^Emummon on the pearl r^Gmaj7osary Let the ^Creason come on the ^Amcommon tongue of your ^Emlovin' me

^CI couldn't utter my love when it ^Dmcounted Ah, but I'm singing like a ^Fbird, 'bout it ^Cnow And I couldn't whisper when you needed it ^Dmshouted Ah, but I'm singing like a ^Fbird, 'bout it ^Cnow

[Chorus 1]

^AmBites on ^Gabove But ^Cnever would ^Fform ^AmLike a cry at the ^Gfinal ^Cbreath that is ^Amdrawn ^AmRemember me ^Glove, when ^CI'm ^Fmaj7reborn ^AmAs the shrike to your ^Gsharp and glorious t^Chorn

Dm Am G C [Verse 2]

^AmDriving a^Glong, ^Cfall on your ^Fthorn ^AmHung like the ^Gpelt of some ^Cprey you had ^Amworn ^AmRemember me ^Glove, when ^CI'm re^Fmaj7born As the ^Amshrike to your ^Gsharp and glorious ^Cthorn

[Instrumental Interlude] C Dm F C C Dm G C [Verse 3]

I ^Cfled to the city with so much dis^Dmcounted Ah, but I'm flying like a ^Fbird to you ^Cnow ^CBack to the hedgerows where bodies are^Dm mounted Ah, but I'm flying like a ^Fbird to you ^Cnow

[Chorus 3]

I was ^Amhatched by your ^Gwarmth ^CThus ^Ftransformed By your ^Amgrounded and ^Ggiving and ^Cdarkening ^Amscorn ^AmRemember me ^Glove, when ^CI'm re^Fmaj7born As the ^Amshrike to your ^Gsharp and glorious ^Cthorn
