A//// Dm/ A/ Dm/
A augmentedA
I walked across a continent
where children did not bat an eye
DmDm
when made to watch their mothers die
A augmentedA
they left the bodies by the sides of roads
where only willows cried
yes even my own eyes were dry
G minorGm Bb majorBb
when somehow there I lost my bride
A augmentedA
the ring slipped free and fell beneath the earth
DmDm
so like Orpheus I bowed and went far underneath the firmaments
A augmentedA
my harp strings broke
my voice was spent
I kissed my lady's hand and sent
G minorGm
my two weeks notice with my rent
Bb majorBb
and she grew cold and softly said
A augmentedA DmDm
I am not your lover I'm the map you use to find her
A augmentedA
I am not your lover
DmDm A augmentedA DmDm
I'm just a map you use to find her
G minorGm DmDm G minorGm A augmentedA
DmDm
I step outside my room once more
and see what I have seen before
A augmentedA
another ship washed to my shore
a figure walking towards my door
G minorGm
her face is tired her dress is torn
Bb majorBb A augmentedA
I look into her eyes and feel her thirst
DmDm
she says I've come across these waters
high pressed on by such auspicious signs
A augmentedA
I've watched the stars and read the tides
the winds have brought me to your side
G minorGm
I come to you
I am your bride
Bb majorBb
and I grew cold as I replied
A augmentedA
that I am not your lover,
DmDm
I'm the map you used to find him
A augmentedA
I am not your lover
DmDm A augmentedA DmDm
I'm just a map you use to find him.
G minorGm DmDm G minorGm A augmentedA (pause)
DmDm DmDm G minorGm DmDm
A augmentedA A augmentedA Dm/A/Dm/
A augmentedA
that I am not your lover,
DmDm
I'm the map you used to find him
A augmentedA
I am not your lover
DmDm A augmentedA DmDm
I'm just a map you use to find him.
A augmentedA
that I am not your lover,
DmDm
I'm the map you used to find her
A augmentedA
I am not your lover
DmDm A augmentedA DmDm
I'm just a map you use to find her
