[Verse 1]
[G]Why do you stand by the win[D]dow
Aban[C]doned to beauty and [G]pride
The thorn of the night in your [D]bosom
And the [C]spear of the age in your [G]side
Lost in the rages of [D]fragrance
You were [C]lost in the rags of re[G]morse
Lost in the waves [C]of [G]a s[D]ickness
That [C]loosens the high silver [G]nerves
Oh, [D]chosen love
Oh, frozen love
Oh, [C]tangled of matter and [G]ghost
O [D]darling of angels,
demons and saints,
And the [C]whole broken -hearted [G]host,
Gentle this [D]soul,
O you gentle [E]my [D]soul,[G]
Come forth from the cloud of unknown
[D]And kis[C]s the cheek of the moo[G]n
The New [C]Jerusalem [G]glow
[D]Why tar[C]ry all night in the room
[G]And leave no word of discom[D]fort
And [C]leave no observer to [G]mourn
But climb on your tears and be [D]si lent
Like a [C]rose on its letter of [G]thorns
O [D]chosen love,
O frozen love,
O [C]tangled of melon and [G]ghost
O [D]darling of angels, demons and saints,
and the [C]whole brokenhearted host
[G]Gentle this sou[D]l,
oh you gentle [E]my [D]sou[G]l
Then lay your rose on the [D]fire
The [C]fire give up to the [G]sun
The sun give over to splendor
[D]in the arm[C]s of the High Holy One
[G]For the Holy One dreams of a l[D]etter,
[C]He dreams of a letter's [G]debt
Oh, bless the continuous stut[D]ter
Of the [C]word being made into flesh
[G]Oh, cho[D]sen love
Oh, frozen love
Oh, [C]tangled of metal an[G]d ghost
Oh, [D]darling of angels, demons and saints,
And the [C]whole broken -hearted [G]host,
Gentle this [D]soul,
Oh, you gentle [E]my [F#m]soul. [D]you
