[Relatively fast 2/2 time]
[Capo 2]
 
 
[Intro]
G   G/F#   Em7   C    G/B    G/F#   G   C
G   G/F#   Em7   Em7/B   C   C   Dsus/A   D   Dsus   D
G  G/B  G  G/B
 
[Verse]
G     G/F#      Em7   Em7/B   C    C      G   G/B
  You come from far away with pictures in your eyes
     G      G/F#     Em7       Em7/B        C     C    D/A   Dsus
Of coffee shops and morning streets in the blue and silent sunrise
    G        G/F#    Em7  Em7/B     C    C    G   G/B
But night is the cathedral where we recognized the sign
   G         G/F#     Em7    Em7/B  G           Dsus/A   G   G/B
We strangers know each other now as part of the whole design
 
 Am7  Am9    D/A     Dsus    Am7   Am9      D/A   Dsus
Oh, hold me like a baby that will not fall asleep
Am7     Am9    D/A   Dsus        Am7   Am9            D/A  Dsus
Curl me up inside you and let me hear you through the heat
G   G/F#   Em7   C   G/B   G/F#   G   G/B
Ohhhh...
 
G     G/F#      Em7   Em7/B   C    C      G   G/B
You're the jester of this courtyard with a smile like a girl's
     G      G/F#     Em7       Em7/B        C     C    D/A   Dsus
Distracted by the women with the dimples and the curls
    G        G/F#    Em7  Em7/B     C    C    G   G/B
By the pretty and the mischevious, by the timid and the blessed
   G         G/F#     Em7    Em7/B  G           Dsus/A   G   G/B
By the blowing skirts of ladies who promise to gather you to their breast
 
Am7  Am9    D/A     Dsus    Am7   Am9      D/A   Dsus
Oh, hold me like a baby that will not fall asleep
Am7     Am9    D/A   Dsus        Am7   Am9            D/A  Dsus
Curl me up inside you and let me hear you through the heat
G   G/F#   Em7   C   G/B   G/F#   G   G/B
Ohhhh...
 
[Guitar Solo]
G   G/F#   Em7   Em7/B   C   C   Dsus/A   D   Dsus   D
G   G/B   G   G/B
 
[Verse]
G     G/F#      Em7   Em7/B   C    C      G   G/B
You have hands of raining water and that earring in your ear
     G      G/F#     Em7       Em7/B        C     C    D/A   Dsus
The wisdom on your face denies the number of your years
    G        G/F#    Em7  Em7/B     C    C    G   G/B
With the fingers of the potter and the laughing tale of a fool
   G         G/F#     Em7    Em7/B  G           Dsus/A   G   G/B
The arranger of disorder with your strange and simple rules
 G        G/F#    Em7  Em7/B     C    C    G   G/B
Yeah, now I've met me another spinner of strange and gauzy threads
   G         G/F#     Em7    Em7/B  G           Dsus/A   G   G/B
With a long and slender body  and a bump upon the head
 
Am7  Am9    D/A     Dsus    Am7   Am9      D/A   Dsus
Oh, hold me like a baby that will not fall asleep
Am7     Am9    D/A   Dsus        Am7   Am9            D/A  Dsus
Curl me up inside you and let me hear you through the heat
G   G/F#   Em7   C   G/B   G/F#   G   G/B
Ohhhh...
 
G     G/F#      Em7   Em7/B   C    C      G   G/B
With a long and slender body and the sweetest, softest hands
     G      G/F#     Em7       Em7/B        C     C    D/A   Dsus
And we'll blow away forever soon and go on to different lands
    G        G/F#    Em7  Em7/B     C    C    G   G/B
And please do not ever look for me, but with me you will stay
   G         G/F#     Em7    Em7/B  G           Dsus/A   G   G/B
And you will hear yourself in song, blowing by one day
 
    Am7  Am9    D/A     Dsus    Am7   Am9      D/A   Dsus
But now, hold me like a baby that will not fall asleep
Am7     Am9    D/A   Dsus        Am7   Am9            D/A  Dsus
Curl me up inside you and let me hear you through the heat
G   G/F#   Em7   C    G/B   G/F#   G   C
Ohhhhhh...
G   G/F#   Em7   Em7/B   C   C  Dsus/A   D   Dsus   D
Ohhhhhh...
 
[Outro]
G   G/F#   Em7   C   G/B   G/F#   G
