Gates to the Garden chords and lyrics - NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]Past the ivy-covered windows
windows of the angel
Down Athenaeum Lane
to the [Dm]cathed[G]ral
[Am]Through the churchyard I wandered
Sat for a spell there and [Dm]I po[G]ndered
My back to the [F]gates
[G]My back to the gat[F]es[G]
My back to the [F]gates [G]of
the [C]garden

[Verse 2]
[Am]
Fugitive fathers, sickly infants,
decent mothers
Runaways [Dm]and suicidal [G]lovers
[Am]Assorted boxes of ordinary bones
Of aborted plans and sudden
[Dm]shattered [G]hopes
In unlucky [F]rows[Am][G]
In unhappy [F]rows[G]
In unlucky [F]rows,
up to the [G]gates of the [C]garden[F]
[G]Won't you

[Verse 3]
[C]meet me at the [G]gates
Won't [C]you meet me at the [G]gates
Won't [C]you meet me at [G]the gates
To the garden
[C][G]

[Verse 4]
[Am]
Beneath the creeping shadow of the tower
The bell from St. Edmunds
informs me of the [Dm]hour[G]
[Am]I turn to find you waiting there for me
In sunlight and I see the
way that [Dm]you breathe
[G]All alive and lea[F]ning[G]
Alive and [F]leaning
[G]Alive and[F] leaning,
leaning on [G]the gates to the [C]garden
[Am]

[Verse 5]
Leave these ancient places to the angels
Let the saints attend to their
keeping of [Dm]the c[G]athedrals
[Am]And leave the dead beneath
the ground so cold
For God is in this hand that [Dm]I hold
[G]As we open up the gat[F]es
[G]As we open up the gat[F]es[G]
We open up the [F]gates [G]to
the [C]garden[F][G]

[Verse 6]
Won't you [C]meet me at the [G]gates
Won't you [C]meet me at the [G]gates
Won't [C]you meet me at [G]the gates
to the [C]garden

[Outro 1]
[F][G][C][G][C][G][C][G]
