VERSE

D          A       Bm                  G 
How did I love you? There was no measuring 
D               A           Bm        G 
Far above this dirty world, far above everything 
G               A                Bm  
In your tower over it, you were clean  


VERSE 

D              A       Bm              G 
So warm and insightful were you in my eyes 
D              A       Bm              G 
I was sure the rightful guardian of my life 
G            A              Bm 
Damn you betrayer, how you lied!  


G But for seven years A D A You were loved, I laid golden orchid crowns around your feet G And for seven years A D A I bowed down to touch the ground so holy; your devotee G Bb Bm You were, you were all that I could see
VERSE: D A Bm G I've got my sight now, I see everything you hid D A Bm G So don't you try to right now all the wrong you did G A Bm I might forget you, but not forgive
G But for seven years A D A You were loved, I laid golden orchid crowns around your feet G And for seven years A D A I bowed down to touch the ground so holy; your devotee G A And for seven years, you were so revered D A I made offerings of anything and everything I had G Bb Bm You were, you were all that I could see
OUTRO: G Bb Bm You were, you were all that I could see (repeat x4)
