She Is My Escape(Chords)

	        

E 
The crowd at the gate is hanging on late like posters from some lost campaign 
F#m 
Suits loose and frayed, their hats blown away, sails catching nothing but rain 
A 
I stand with a rope tied firm to the hope that will leave a good night where it fell 
E                                       F#m  E                 F#m      E 
and that light burst and free is coming for me, let's love and let's do loving well 

F#m  E 

E 
Now I woke in a cloud after speaking aloud to a vision of you in the street 
F#m 
Back in a room the heat in full bloom I see lilies grow wild at my feet 
A 
So down the line I'll keep your heart in mine and our lungs ring an hourly bell 
E                                       F#m  E                 F#m      E 
It's as clear as the moon as it follows and taps on my shoulder; I'm under a spell 

F#m E 

E 
Out here in the night where I once lost the fight and abandoned all hope for a home 
F#m 
I seek out her shape, you know she is my escape and I'll follow wherever she goes 
A 
The hinge of her door well it groans and roars and what stands between us like a veil 
E                                       F#m  E                 F#m      E 
Is my fear and my doubt, but I turn and sing darling, let's love and let's do loving well 
E    F#m     E 
let's love and let's do loving well 
E    F#m     E 
let's love and let's do loving well
