But the lead melody implies a Gm tonality. Verse: G You fell from the sky G Crash landed in a field G Near the river Adur G Flowers spring from the ground G Lambs burst from the wombs of their mothers G In a hole beneath the bridge G She convalesce, she fashioned masks of clay and twigs G You cried beneath the dripping trees G Ghost song lodged in the throat of a mermaid
Chorus: Gm With my voice F Gm alt I am calling you Verse: G You're a young man waking G Covered in blood that is not yours G You're a woman in a yellow dress G Surrounded by a charm of hummingbirds G You're a young girl full of forbidden energy G Flickering in the gloom G You're a drug addict lying on your back G In a Tijuana hotel room Chorus: Gm With my voice F Gm alt I am calling you Bb With my voice C Gm alt I am calling you Verse: G You're an African doctor harvesting tear ducts G You believe in God, but you get no special dispensation for this belief now G You're an old man sitting by a fire, hear the mist rolling off the sea G You're a distant memory in the mind of your creator, don't you see? Chorus: Gm With my voice F Gm alt I am calling you Bb With my voice C Gm alt I am calling you Bridge: G Let us sit together until the moment comes Gm With my voice F Gm alt I am calling you Bb F Gm alt Let us sit together in the dark until the moment comes Chorus: Gm With my voice F Gm alt I am calling you Bb With my voice C Gm alt I am calling you Bb With my voice F Gm alt I am calling you Bb With my voice C Gm alt I am calling you Outro: Bb F Gm alt Bb C Gm alt Gm F Gm alt Gm C Gm alt Gm F Gm alt Gm C Gm alt Lead e|--------20-----\|18--------------|--------20--\18\|15--------------| B|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| G|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| D|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| A|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
