Intro
E B F#m A E G# A E
[Verse 1]
E
I've been patient too long
B F#m
My memory's dead
A E
All fears and all wrongs
G# A
To the heavens have fled
[Verse 2]
E
With a fierce buzzing rise
B F#m
While all my veins burst
A E
Oh, come the filthy flies
G# A E
And their sickly thirst
* You can move up to the chorus with some quick E F#m G#m *
[Chorus]
A E
Oh, may it come the time of love
A E
All the time we would be enamoured of
C#m
I've waited for too long
Am
Lord and I've done nothing wrong
B A
Please don't feel bad
E B E
But be free
[Verse 3]
E
How many days I've spent
B F#m
Many times I've tried
A E
To give a name to the thing that ails you though
G# A
I know I haven't the right
[Verse 4]
E
All the reasons I've built up
B F#m
All advice that I gave
A E
Drifted on like so many floats in some
G# A E
Senseless parade
[Chorus]
A E
Oh, may it come the time of love
A E
All the time we would be enamoured of
C#m
I've waited for too long
Am
Lord and I've done nothing wrong
B A
Please don't feel bad
E B E
But be free
[Verse 5]
E
All this misplaced affection
B F#m
It's like a charm or a spell
A E
Well you know it makes you feel so fine while it
G# A
Lays waste to your health
[Verse 6]
E
Everyone I see
B F#m
Everywhere that I go
A E
Well you know it's just how you feel it's not
G# A E
What you know
[Chorus]
A E
Oh, may it come the time of love
A E
All the time we would be enamoured of
C#m
I've waited for too long
Am
Lord and I've done nothing wrong
B A
Please don't feel bad
E B E
But be free
[Verse 7]
E
All the feeling that is gone
B F#m
All the sense that has left
A E
Taken leave and gone abroad
G# A
To other worlds while you slept
[Verse 8]
E
It wouldn't be much different
B F#m
It would be quite the same
A E
All the evil you can possibly dream of and
G# A E
No one to blame
[Chorus]
A E
Oh, may it come the time of love
A E
All the time we would be enamoured of
C#m
I've waited for too long
Am
Lord and I've done nothing wrong
B A
Please don't feel bad
E B E
But be free
