Saint Sister


Tom: Em

 Em                         D                         
Somewhere in the dark I felt your body leave me
                C                        Em            D 
Now I wait and feel your weight in other things
 G                         c                         
Somewhere in the dark the skeletons retrieve me
                                            Em        
Now I wait and feel your weight in coloured dreams

        
[Chorus]
   D    G                 D             
Unruly sun, what have you done?
                                    C        
The Lion runs and says he'll never hurt me
                          Em          
But the Tin Man will not desert me
     C                Em             
The Tin Man will not desert me

         
[Verse 2]
                        D                         
Of all the golden roads I could try and drown in
    C                              Em           D 
On tenterhooks the boyhood crooks remain
 G                       C                           
Oh, decrepit throne, I'd never lay you down here
                                Em     
On tenterhooks it only looks the same

        
[Chorus]
   D    G                 D             
Unruly sun, what have you done?
                                    C        
The Lion runs and says he'll never hurt me
                          Em          
But the Tin Man will not desert me
     C                Em             
The Tin Man will not desert me

           
[Interlude]
                          
The Lion runs (Oh, oh, oh)

        
[Bridge]
 Em                     D                                               
Somewhere in the dark, the shape of silence drew me (The Lion runs)
 C                                                           
Somewhere there's a heart, the shape of it grows through me
 D                                  Em    
Now I wait, the morning's long and late

        
[Chorus]
   D    G                 D          
Unruly sun, what have you done?
                                    C                                              
The Lion runs and says he'll never hurt me
     C                    Em                                              
But the Tin Man will not desert me (The Tin Man will not desert me)
    C                Em                                                              
The Tin Man will not desert me (The Tin Man will not desert me)
    C                Em                                                                
The Tin Man will not desert me (The Tin Man will not desert me)
    C        Em                
The Tin Man (The Tin Man)
