Intro:
Bm G D/F# A

Verse 1:
Bm                           G
   For all the moments never known
                                           D/F#
'Cause he stepped off of the tallest sail
                           A
For all the love he'd left below

In the waves

Bm                                 G
    He made his peace with letting go
                                          D/F#
Said some things he'd never dared to say
                           A
The one the lighthouse left alone

Never saved

Pre-Chorus:
                  Bm
A set of eyes had pinned him
                        D
Became his version of a kingdom
                         G
Now I know they'll never hunt me

Chorus:
                          Bm
When she's singing to me "Glory"
        A                              G
(And a hopeful rhythm woke within him)
                    Bm
She's singing to me "Glory"
          A                                      G
(Had some letters written, 'course she's in 'em)
                    Bm
She's singing to me "Glory"
          A                          G
(Tried to tell her, throat was linen)
                     Bm
She's singing to me "Glory"
            A                            G
(I was only ever thinking about you, you know)
                     Bm      A
She's singing to me "Glory"


Verse 2:
Bm                             G
   They found a letter that he wrote
                                            D/F#
He said "it's best off if we burn the page"
                     A
I wrote it very long ago

In different days

Bm                              G
   I guess I'm tired of talk of hope
                                                  D/F#
I've learned that doves and ravens fly the same (fly the same)
                         A
But suddenly she's all I know

An old refrain

Pre-Chorus:
                  Bm
A set of eyes had pinned him
                        D
Became his version of a kingdom
                         G
Now I know they'll never hunt me

Chorus:
                          Bm
When she's singing to me "Glory"
        A                              G
(And a hopeful rhythm woke within him)
                    Bm
She's singing to me "Glory"
          A                                      G
(Had some letters written, 'course she's in 'em)
                    Bm
She's singing to me "Glory"
          A                          G
(Tried to tell her, throat was linen)
                     Bm
She's singing to me "Glory"
            A                            G
(I was only ever thinking about you, you know)
                     Bm      A
She's singing to me "Glory"    Oh


Bridge:
G  Bm A
G  Bm A
   "Glory"
G  Bm            A                            G
      I was only ever thinking about you, you know
              Bm      A
Singin' to me "Glory"

(muted)
                  G
A set of eyes had pinned him
                        Bm      A
Became his version of a kingdom
                           G
She's everything the devil can't be
                         Bm     A
When she's singing to me "Glory"
                  G
A set of eyes had pinned him
                        Bm      A
Became his version of a kingdom
                           G
She's everything the devil can't be
                         Bm     A
When she's singing to me "Glory"

*pause*
