Mystery Of Love Guitar Chords Sufjan Stevens

[Intro]
D F#m Bm F#m A

[Verse 1]
D F#m
Oh, to see without my eyes
Bm F#m A
The first time that you kissed me
D F#m
Boundless by the time I cried
Bm F#m A
I built your walls around me
D F#m
White noise, what an awful sound
Bm F#m A
Fumbling by Rogue River
D F#m
Feel my feet above the ground
Bm F#m A
Hand of God, deliver me

[Chorus 1]
Em A
Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
Bm F#m A
The first time that you touched me
Em A
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
Bm F#m A D
Blessed be the mystery of love

[Verse 2]
D F#m
Lord, I no longer believe
Bm F#m A
Drowned in living waters
D F#m
Cursed by the love that I received
Bm F#m A
From my brother’s daughter
D F#m
Like Hephaestion, who died
Bm F#m A
Alexander’s lover
D F#m
Now my riverbed has dried
Bm F#m A
Shall I find no other?

[Chorus 2]
Em A
Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
Bm F#m A
I’m running like a plover
Em A
Now I’m prone to misery
Bm F#m A D
The birthmark on your shoulder reminds me

[Verse 3]
D F#m
How much sorrow can I take?
Bm F#m A
Blackbird on my shoulder
D F#m
And what difference does it make
Bm F#m A
When this love is over?
D F#m
Shall I sleep within your bed
Bm F#m A
River of unhappiness
D F#m
Hold your hands upon my head
Bm F#m A
Till I breathe my last breath

[Chorus 3]
Em A
Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
Bm F#m A
The last time that you touched me
Em A
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
Bm F#m A D
Blessed be the mystery of love
