King Saul fell on his sword when it all went wrong,
     E                                  B
and Joseph’s brothers sold him down the river for a song,
     E                              Asus2
and Sonny Liston rubbed some tiger balm into his glove.

Raskolnikov felt sick but he couldn't say why
         E                             B
when he saw his face reflected in his victim's twinkling eye.
      E                              Asus2
Some things you'll do for money and some you'll do for fun,
         F#m                              Asus2            B      E
but the things you do for love are gonna come back to you one by one.

     Love, love is gonna lead you by the hand
Asus2                             E
     into a white and soundless place.

     Now we see things as in a mirror dimly.

     Then we shall see each other face to face.

And way out in Seattle young Kurt Cobain
 E                                  B
snuck out to the greenhouse, put a bullet in his brain.
 E                                     Asus2
Snakes in the grass beneath our feet, rain in the clouds above,  
      F#m                           Asus2          B           E
some moments last forever, but some flare up with love, love, love.
