Capo 3 


INTRO:


       EM  C  G  D  EM  C  G  D 

    EM                      C           G                  D
 THE ROPE THAT'S WRAPPED AROUND ME IS CUTTING THROUGH MY SKIN
           EM                C                G                D
 AND THE DOUBTS THAT HAVE SURROUNDED ME ARE FINDING THEIR WAY IN
             EM       C       G        D 
 I KEEP IT CLOSE TO ME LIKE A HOLY MAN PRAYS
        EM          C       G  
 IN MY DESPERATE HOUR IT'S BETTER, BETTER THAT WAY

 AM7 G       C               D     AM7   G        C         D         AM7   G 
         SO I'LL COME BY TO SEE YOU AGAIN     I'LL BE SUCH A VERY GOOD FRIEND
               C             D          EM            D           C  
         HAVE MERCY ON MY SOUL  I WILL NEVER LET YOU KNOW WHERE MY MIND HAS BEEN
 
CHORUS
  EM   C G             D  Dsus4    EM    C         AM           D Dsus4
  ANGELS NEVER CAME DOWN, THERE'S NO ONE HERE THEY WANT TO HANG AROUND.
  EM          C             G             D  Dsus4  EM     C        AM            
  BUT IF THEY KNEW, IF THEY KNEW YOU AT ALL, THEN ONE BY ONE THE ANGELS,
      D   Dsus4   EM  C G D
  ANGELS WOULD FALL.

       EM                C             G               D
  I'VE CREPT INTO YOUR TEMPLE, I HAVE SLEPT UPON YOUR PEW.
         EM               C       G                 D
  I HAVE DREAMED OF THE DIVINITY INSIDE AND OUT OF YOU.
             EM           C         G              D
  I WANT IT MORE THAN TRUTH. I CAN TASTE IT ON MY BREATH.
            EM     C          G         D 
  I WOULD GIVE MY LIFE FOR A LITTLE, A LITTLE DEATH.

             C                  D     AM7  G     C          D         AM7   G
          SO I'LL COME BACK TO SEE YOU AGAIN  I'LL BE JUST A VERY GOOD FRIEND
                      C                 D              EM               D        C
          I WILL NOT LOOK UPON YOUR FACE. I WILL NOT TOUCH UPON YOUR GRACE, YOUR ECCLESIASTIC SKIN.
