I have been to the shadowland
AbAb
I heard the empty call
Cm7/F
of hatred, anorexia
BB
Misery and alcohol
Cm7Cm7
By their hearths I warmed myself
AbAb
To escape from the winter years
Cm7/F
Until I saw in the window
BB
Myself crying fire-coloured tears
C minorCm
Love, the only alchemy
AbAb
Love, the killer of despair
FF
Love, the patient samurai
BB
Love, the armour angels wear
AbAb
Love
Cm7Cm7
They turned away the prophet
AbAb
Because she was young and full of longing
Cm7/F
Instead they turned to the magistrate
BB
Who was busy yawning
Cm7Cm7
And they try to sell me holy books
AbAb
But I can see their eyes are wild
Cm7/F
I caught them pouring shame and fear
BB
Into the perfect vessel of a child
C minorCm
Bue love's the only alchemy
AbAb
Love, the killer of despair
FF
Love, the true nobility
BB
Love, the armour angels wear
C minorCm
Love
AbAb
Love will make your eyes clear
Cm7/F
The order of the universe
Cm7Cm7
