Gm                  Bb      F
I love a man, whose love is violence
           D                Gm
Who always comes, who goes away
                    Bb   F
Who never brings me any flowers
            D            Gm
To blossom in my blazing shade

[Chorus]
                           Bb      F
And all of his weak-heart love is lonely
            D              Gm
Our love is running out of breath
                  Bb    F
When I wake, you cannot know me
       D                 Gm
When I sleep, I dream of death

[Verse]
               Bb        F
Wire, cradle, cross and arrow
          D              Gm
Mother's milk or crone's rage
                         Bb       F
Mouths like wolves, we dine like sparrows
          D             Gm
There is grace in great restraint

[Chorus]
                           Bb     F
And all of his weak-heart love is lonely
            D              Gm
Our love is running out of breath
                   Bb    F
When I wake, you cannot know me
       D                Gm
When I sleep, I dream of death

[Verse]
                          Bb       F
And I could not help but leave and wonder
             D                Gm
What spirit steals your awful head
                   Bb      F
And I am grateful for your candor
             D            Gm
I could not love a better man

[Chorus]
                             Bb      F
Cause all of his weak-heart love is lonely
             D             Gm
Our love is running out of breath
                  Bb         F
When I wake, you cannot know me
       D                 Gm
When I sleep, I dream of death
