[Verse]
Bm9
The old gates are always locked
E7
By the daughter of the keys
Bm9
Sad eyes are fixed on the world
E7
From the balcony
D E/C#
While the six o'clock procession
E7/B F#sus4
Take their prayer books to the hall
Bm E
It's sad to see them shed a tear
D Bm7
Inside the convent walls
Bm9
Red mountains around them
E7
Keep out those who'd come
Bm9
But only birds and wild deer
E7
Share the lives of nuns
D E/C#
For ladies who in kindness
E7/B F#sus4
Burn the knowledge they have found
Bm E
Their knowledge lies inside a hole
D Bm
Buried in the ground
[Chorus]
Bm7 E9
For the Sisters of the Cross
Bm7 E9
Seek the shadows that they have lost
A D
In the walls where their lives
A D
Are protected by God
B7 E9
But the feeling of love
B7 E9
Is somehwere in your bones
D
Your body is wasted
F#sus4
When it should have been owned
Bm9
The Mother of the mission bells
E7
Has lived here all her life
Bm9
She never felt the hands of man
E7
Touch her in the night
D E/C#
And the canopies that cover her
E7/B F#sus4
So cold and so afraid
Bm E
Thinking holy mothers die
D E
Like spinsters in the grave
Bm9
To be single in the chapel
E7
Praying knelt down on your knees
Bm9
Where the corridors are echoing
E7
Their proud solemnity
D E/C#
And the candle light against the glass
E7/B F#sus4
Plays shadow chasing tricks
Bm E
As the young girls fall, their eyes in tears
D Bm
Beside the crucifix
