the crying tree of mercury
tuning:Eb
Am
this is the song iґve been singing my whole life
iґve been waiting like a knife
G
To cut open your heart
F G
And bleed my soul to you
F Am
I did it all for you
You and you and you and you
Am
this is the sound iґve been making my whole life
iґve been waiting for this night
G
To clear up all the talk
F G
Although I’m selfish to a fault
F Am
Is it selfish? It’s you I want
you i did it all for you
Am
Solo
G F G
This love, will stand as long as you
F Am
There’s really no excuse
You I did it all for you
Am
These are the tears I’ve been crying my whole life
Like an ocean of desire
I’m reaching through the noise
Across the dusk of time
Within the lilting light
I am singing out to you
