[D][Dsus4][D][Dsus4][D][Dsus4][D][Dsus4][G]
[Dsus4][Gm][D][Dm][D][Dsus4][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Beloved,

[Verse 2]
I have to adore the earth:
[D]The wind must have heard
your [Dsus4]voice once.
It [D]echoes [Dsus4]and sings[D]
[Dsus4]like you.
[D]

[Verse 3]
[Dsus4]The soil [D]must have tasted
[Dsus4]you once.
It is [D]laded with [F]your scent.
[Dm]The trees

[Verse 4]
[F]honor you
in gold
and [Eb]blush when you pass.

[Verse 5]
[Eb]I kn[D]ow why the North Country
is [Dsus4]frozen.
It has [D]been trying to preserve
[Dm]your memory.
I [Dsus4]know

[Verse 6]
[Gsus2]when the deser[Dsus4]t[D]
[Em]burn[Dsus4]s with fev[D]er[F][Dm]
[F]It [Dm]was[Dsus4][D][Dsus4][D][Dsus4]
wept too long without [G]you.[Dsus4]

[Verse 7]
[Dsus4]On hands [D]and knees,
the [Dsus4]ocean begs up the beach,
[D]and [D]falls at your feet.

[Verse 8]
[A]I have to adore
[G]the mirror [Gsus2]of the earth.[F][Dm][D]
You [Em]have [Em]taught her well
how to [Dsus4]be beautiful.
