C
We married him on fire
          G
Like the nuns who married God
      Em
Then we jumped out of the airplane
     Am
And trusted we would fall
       C
Then we traveled through the mountains
          Dm
With our bodies weighed down
        F
By the perfect lovely vision
        G               Gsus4 G
In the absence of all sound

[Verse 2]
D           C
And though he was a faithful tailor
     G
Our deeds we must confess
    Em
We loved so many others
 Am
Despite our wedding dress
             C
So when the lace snagged on the fender
        G
Of the car he left to drive
         F
When we took it on a bender, when we
 G             Gsus4 G
Took it for a ride

[Interlude]
Am G

[Verse 3]
             C
We wound up thirsty in this jail cell
          G
But we heard he's headed here
    Em                 G
To excavate this holy well and 
 Am
Pour it crystal clear
         C
And we filled our cup with silence
         Dm
And the words who keep in time
         F
With the song that he will sing us
   G                   Gsus4 G
As forgiveness for our crime

[Interlude]
A C D C Dm A C Dm C G D 
Hmmmmmmm... Hmmmmmmm...

[Verse 4]
 G                C
Well, love, it's true you're golden-throated
          G
And your history is long
           Em
And you've had so many lovely creatures 
 Am
Occupy your songs
           C
So may we take you to the altar
        Dm
We'll feed you bread and wine
         F
And be swimming in the fountain with you
 G               Gsus4 G
'Til the end of time

[Outro]
Am C G C
Hmmmm... 
Am C G
Hmmm...
Am Em C
Hmmm...
