Verse
D A
Is part of the attraction
A
that you want to be destroyed?
Em
I’m the spirit on the water,
G
you’re the formless void
D
When I heard your voice
A
at first I was annoyed
Em
You woke me
[Verse 2]
D
From the beginning of time
A
you had so little grace
Em
After a while not a
G
freckle on your face
D
I was looking for a rhyme
A
in time and space
Em
and you broke me
[Verse 3]
D
You were walking
A
round naked with
Em
your pants not on
G
At the gates of Eden
A
with no sins to pardon
D
It was Adam not Eve
A
who threw God out of the garden you
Em
wrote me
[Pre-chorus]

Let’s not get too clever with this stuff
G D A
What are you ready to give up
[Chorus]
Em G
To find love
D A
To find love
Em G
To find love

[Verse 4]
D
When you’re climbing from the wreckage
A
of a burned out star
Em G
Any old neon looks like the Carlton Bar
D
Asked where was I going
A
I answered how far
Em
you wanna go
D A
American male interiornight,
Em G
the cigarette smoker’s gonna find his light
D
If you repeat it often enough
A
wrong looks right
Em
But deep down you know
[Pre-chorus]
G D A
The smooth will make excuses for the rough
G D A
You know it shouldn’t be this tough
[Chorus]

To find love

To find love
Em G
To find love

To find love
[Bridge]
D Em D Em
Tell the oceans, tell the sun
D Em D Em
Tell the weatherman, tell everyone
[Verse 5]
D
All the money junkies
A
are running out of veins
Em
If you’re one of them yourself
you’ve got no one else to blame
D
You don’t need anymore
A
then you have except the shame
Em
of feeling torn
D
between the hungry and the greedy
A
the honeyed and the needy
Em G
When you serve the poor, you free me
[Verse 6]
D
Slaves have grown accustomed
A
to the weight of your chains
Em
And your heads shorn
D
your eyes will find the silence
A
inside the hurricane
Em
you know you must do something
G
other than complain
D
We’ll pray for mother earth,
A
these are not more labour pains
Em
Maybe you’re being born
[Pre-chorus]
G D A
Out of the ash, out of the dust
G D A
The clever learn, who not to trust
G D A
The genius of belief, is that we must
G D A
take a chance sometimes on us
