The Window

Intro: A E D A

A E
Why do you stand by the window
D A
Abandoned to beauty and pride
A E
The thorn of the night in your bosom
D A
The spear of the age in your side
A E
Lost in the rages of fragrance
D A
Lost in the rags of remorse
A E
Lost in the waves of a sickness
D A
That loosens the high silver nerves
E
O chosen love, o frozen love
D A
O tangle of matter and ghost
E
O darling of angels, demons and saints
D A
And the whole broken-hearted host
E
Gentle this soul
A E
And come forth from the cloud of unknowing
D A
And kiss the cheek of the moon
A E
The new Jerusalem glowing
D A
Why tarry all night in the ruin
A E
And leave no word of discomfort
D A
And leave no observer to mourn
A E
But climb on your tears and be silent
D A
Like the rose on its ladder of thorns
E
O chosen love, o frozen love
D A
O tangle of matter and ghost
E
O darling of angels, demons and saints
D A
And the whole broken-hearted host
E
Gentle this soul
A E
Then lay your rose on the fire
D A
The fire give up to the sun
A E
The sun give over to splendor
D A
In the arms of the High Holy One
A E
For the Holy One dreams of a letter
D A
Dreams of a letter's death
A E
Oh bless the continuous stutter
D A
Of the word being made into flesh
E
O chosen love, o frozen love
D A
O tangle of matter and ghost
E
O darling of angels, demons and saints
D A
And the whole broken-hearted host
E A
Gentle this soul, gentle this soul
