Intro: Em, A  

Dm          G                C 
Crucify the blinding sky for light 
       F               C         G 
Love's lover is like a lightning rod 
Dm               G                C 
Howling wind has been heard in my head 
     F             C       G 
Dead dreamers in a burning car 

     F         C       Am       G 
Your mind is a diamond blue and green 
        F                C         Am      G 
Shining out through your eyes like falling leaves 
         F         C       Am       G         Bb 
When you open your mouth a swarm of bees will appear 

Eb       Dm            C#       B  
My dear steer clear, have no fear 
        D         G                  C  
For you know just what they call you here 
           C              Em         G 
You're the laughing lover covered in tears 

Dm             G                 C 
Steal away the sun, the moon and stars 
      F             C       G 
Start simple with a woman's voice 
Dm             G              C      F 
Wisdom lingers on the fingers of the fortress 
       C    G 
Like a lazy ghost 

     F         C         Am    G 
Your mind is a dragon of dying bird 
        F          C              Am    G 
Like to circle the flames singing words unheard 
            F            C                Am          G     Bb 
When you're death like a thread pulls you in and your lover appears 

Eb       Dm            C#       B  
My dear steer clear, have no fear 
        D         G                  C  
For you know just what they call you here 
           C              Em         G 
You're the laughing lover covered in tears 

(Same as Before)  

Sanctify the blinding sky for light weaves wonders out of bits of clay 
Howling wind has been heard in my head breaking bread, but in a gentle way 

Your mind is a diamond blue and green 
Shining out through your eyes like falling leaves 
When you open your mouth a swarm of bees will appear 


Eb       Dm            C#       B  
My dear steer clear, have no fear 
        D         G                  C  
For you know just what they call you here 
           C              Em         G 
You're the laughing lover covered in tears
