I ^Amsee you in windows That o^Ampen so wide There's no^Gthing beyond them And no ^Amone inside

[Verse 2]

You k^Amick off your sandals And s^Amhake out your hair The s^Galt on your shoulders Like sp^Amarks in the air

[Verse 3]

There's s^Amilt on your ankles And s^Amand on your feet The ri^Gver too shallow The o^Amcean too deep

[Verse 4]

You s^Ammile at your suffering The sw^Ameetest reprieve W^Ghy did you leave us? ^AmWhy did you leave?

[Chorus]

You k^Cick off your sandals And sh^Cake out your hair It's t^E7orn where you're dancing It's t^E7orn everywhere

[Verse 5]

It's t^Amorn on the right And it's t^Amorn on the left It's t^Forn in the centre F Fmaj7b5 E Which few can accept

[Verse 6]

It's t^Amorn where there's beauty It's t^Amorn where there's death It's t^Gorn where there's mercy But t^Amorn somewhat less

[Verse 7]

It's t^Amorn in the highest From ki^Amngdom to crown The mes^Gsages fly But the ne^Amtwork is down

[Verse 8]

Br^Amuised at the shoulder And ^Amcut at the wrist The s^Gea rushes home To its th^Amimble of mist

[Verse 9]

The opp^Amosites falter The sp^Amirals reverse And E^Gve must re-enter The s^Amleep of her birth

{Chorus]

And ^Cup through the system The wo^Crlds are withdrawn From e^E7very dominion The m^E7ind stood upon

And ^Amnow that you told her And ^Amnow that it's done The n^Fame has no number F Fmaj7b5 E Not even the one

[Verse 10]

Come g^Amather the pieces All sc^Amattered and lost The l^Gie in what's holy The l^Amight in what's not

[Verse 11]

The s^Amtory's been written The le^Amtter's been sealed You g^Gave me a lily But ^Amnow it's a field

[Outro]

You k^Amick off your sandals And s^Amhake out your hair It's t^Gorn where you're dancing It's t^Amorn everywhere
