            [Intro]
C D Em/B D (x2)

[Verse 1]
  C                      D
Oh, to see without my eyes
   Em                   Bm
The first time that you kissed me
   C                         D
Boundless by the time I cried
   Em                 Bm
I built your walls around me
  C                            D
White noise, what an awful sound
   Em             Bm
Fumbling by Rogue River
   C                        D
Feel my feet above the ground
   Em             Bm
Hand of God, deliver me

[Chorus 1]
Am                    D
Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
      G   G/A  G/B  G/D  G/B    D/A 
The first time that you touched me
Am                      D
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
G  G/A G/B G/D G/B D/A     C
Blessed be the mystery of love

[Interlude 1]
C G/B D (x4)
C D Em/B D 

[Verse 2]
C                    D
Lord, I no longer believe
Em/B              Bm
Drowned in living waters
C                             D
Cursed by the love that I received
Em/B                Bm
From my brother's daughter
C                      D
Like Hephaestion, who died
Em/B         Bm
Alexander's lover
C                     D
Now my riverbed has dried
Em/B             Bm
Shall I find no other?

[Chorus 2]
Am                    D
Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
     G G/A G/B G/D G/B D/A
I'm running like a plover
Am                    D
Now I'm prone to misery
     G   G/A G/B G/D  G/B  D/A     C
The birthmark on your shoulder reminds me

[Interlude 2]
C G/B D (x4)
C D Em/B D 

[Verse 3]
C                      D
How much sorrow can I take?
Em/B              Bm
Blackbird on my shoulder
C                            D
And what difference does it make
Em/B               Bm
When this love is over?
C                          D
Shall I sleep within your bed
Em/B        Bm
River of unhappiness
C                        D
Hold your hands upon my head
Em/B                       Bm
Till I breathe my last breath

[Chorus 3]
Am                    D
Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
     G   G/A  G/B  G/D  G/B    D/A 
The last time that you touched me
Am                      D
Oh, will wonders ever cease? 
G  G/A G/B G/D G/B D/A     C
Blessed be the mystery of love
