C D Oh, to see without my eyes Em Bm The first time that you kissed me C D Boundless by the time I cried Em Bm I built your walls around me White noise, what an awful sound Fumbling by Rogue River Feel my feet above the ground Hand of God, deliver me Chorus: Am D Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me G G/A G/B G/D G/B D/A The first time that you touched me Am D Oh, will wonders ever cease? G G/A G/B G/D G/B D/A C Blessed be the mystery of love Lord, I no longer believe Drowned in living waters Cursed by the love that I received From my brother's daughter Like Hephaestion, who died Alexander's lover Now my riverbed has dried Shall I find no other? Chorus: Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me I'm running like a plover Now I'm prone to misery The birthmark on your shoulder reminds me How much sorrow can I take? Blackbird on my shoulder And what difference does it make When this love is over? Shall I sleep within your bed? River of unhappiness Hold your hands upon my head Till I breathe my last breath Chorus: Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me The last time that you touched me Oh, will wonders ever cease?
