How Cifras

[Intro]
 
C      Am
 
 
[Verse 1]
Am             Amadd9   C
I had wondered what was done to you
            F      Am       G6      Am
To give you such a taste of flesh
Am                Amadd9  C
I guess for years I just carried on
       F                Am           G6      Am
Didn't feel much of a choice to suppress
 
 
[Verse 2]
Am               Amadd9     C
I hope your memory is less vivid than mine
       F              Am           G6
And is free from that awful maple light
Am                             Amadd9   C
I have to say I still wish you had just done it in the dark
       F                Am       G6
So the pictures didn't burn so bright
 
 
[Chorus]
    Am      G6        C
But I'll forgive you now
   F             C          G6           F
Release you from all of the blame I know how
    Am      G6        C
And I'll forgive you now
       F          C          G6           F
As if saying the words will help me know how
                     C      Am
Please help me know how
 
 
[Verse 3]
Am         Amadd9   C
I'm afraid it will take a time
             F                   Am                     G6   Am
I'll make my case to the Shahanshah as I bring him his cup
                   Amadd9  C
And I tell him the best I can what I need
             F              Am          G6   Am
To build the walls of my Jerusalem back up
 
 
[Verse 4]
Am                        Amadd9        C
And I have reckoned with what you have taken from me
      F            Am         G6
And I killed that liar in my head
Am             Amadd9     C
I buried him beneath the maple tree
 F                 Am                G6
There's no joy in dancing with the dead
 
 
[Chorus]
    Am      G6        C
But I'll forgive you now
   F             C          G6           F
Release you from all of the blame I know how
    Am      G6        C
And I'll forgive you now
       F          C          G6           F
As if saying the words will help me know how
 
 
[Outro]
 G    F    C
How, how
