Shadowland - Sarah Slean
The Baroness (2008)
Transcribed by Kristilyn

Ab

       Cm7
I have been to the shadowland
  Ab
I heard the empty call
   Cm7/F
of hatred, anorexia
B
Misery and alcohol

         Cm7
By their hearths I warmed myself
     Ab
To escape from the winter years
        Cm7/F
Until I saw in the window
       B
Myself crying fire-coloured tears

Cm
Love, the only alchemy
Ab
Love, the killer of despair
F
Love, the patient samurai
B
Love, the armour angels wear
Ab
Love

     Cm7
They turned away the prophet
                Ab
Because she was young and full of longing
             Cm7/F
Instead they turned to the magistrate
        B
Who was busy yawning

         Cm7
And they try to sell me holy books
          Ab
But I can see their eyes are wild
              Cm7/F
I caught them pouring shame and fear
         B
Into the perfect vessel of a child

Cm
Bue love's the only alchemy
Ab
Love, the killer of despair
F
Love, the true nobility
B
Love, the armour angels wear
Cm
Love

Ab
Love will make your eyes clear
Cm7/F
The order of the universe
Cm7
