Selection chords: Katie Paterson

 C#                  F#
Last night I had a dream
 C#                   F#
The dream I had was true
 C#                  F#
I fell through the stars
 C#                   F#
Went walking on the moon
 A#m                     F#              G#
Burned like a thousand candles in her arms

 C#                        F#
The skin under my finger tips
 C#                  F#
Honeysuckle of her lips
 C#               F#                A#m
Sweeter than a man deserves to taste
 F#                          G#
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say?

    C#  F#   C#  F#  C#  F#
But Amen. Amen Amen

 C#                       F#
Last night we were born together
 C#                       F#
It was like weʼd always been
 C#                 F#
Sheʼll be with me forever
 C#                  F#
If I donʼt see her again
 A#m                 F#                 G#
We poured the wine until our cup ran over

 C#                  F#
Unfolding like the mystery
 C#                  F#
Inside of her like poetry
 C#                 F#                  A#m
A thousand horses running through my veins
 F#                           G#
Mercy, mercy what else can I say

    C#  F#   C#  F#  C#  F#
But Amen. Amen Amen

 A#m                 F#
I laid down in her garden
 A#m           F#
Naked on her floor
 A#m                  F#
Windows up, the curtains blowing
 A#m                  F#
She donʼt lock the door

 A#m  F#  C#  G#  A#m  F#  C#  G#
Amen,      Amen

 C#              F#
At the banquet table
 C#             F#
A beggar at a feast
 C#                            F#
I felt her tongue between my lips
 C#                  F#
And I forgot to breath
 A#m                       F#                   G#
We stayed there ʼtil the candles burned the carpet

 C#                  F#
Last night I had a dream
 C#                   F#
The dream I had was true
 C#             F#               A#m
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say
 F#                                  G#
Mercy, mercy, I’ll kneel down and pray

 C#  F#  C#  F#
Amen, Amen

 A#m  F#  C#  G#  A#m  F#  C#  G#
Amen,      Amen
