[Verse]
A#m9
The old gates are always locked
D#7
By the daughter of the keys
A#m9
Sad eyes are fixed on the world
D#7
From the balcony
C# D#/C
While the six o'clock procession
D#7/A# Fsus4
Take their prayer books to the hall
A#m D#
It's sad to see them shed a tear
C# A#m7
Inside the convent walls
A#m9
Red mountains around them
D#7
Keep out those who'd come
A#m9
But only birds and wild deer
D#7
Share the lives of nuns
C# D#/C
For ladies who in kindness
D#7/A# Fsus4
Burn the knowledge they have found
A#m D#
Their knowledge lies inside a hole
C# A#m
Buried in the ground
[Chorus]
A#m7 D#9
For the Sisters of the Cross
A#m7 D#9
Seek the shadows that they have lost
G# C#
In the walls where their lives
G# C#
Are protected by God
A#7 D#9
But the feeling of love
A#7 D#9
Is somehwere in your bones
C#
Your body is wasted
Fsus4
When it should have been owned
A#m9
The Mother of the mission bells
D#7
Has lived here all her life
A#m9
She never felt the hands of man
D#7
Touch her in the night
C# D#/C
And the canopies that cover her
D#7/A# Fsus4
So cold and so afraid
A#m D#
Thinking holy mothers die
C# D#
Like spinsters in the grave
A#m9
To be single in the chapel
D#7
Praying knelt down on your knees
A#m9
Where the corridors are echoing
D#7
Their proud solemnity
C# D#/C
And the candle light against the glass
D#7/A# Fsus4
Plays shadow chasing tricks
A#m D#
As the young girls fall, their eyes in tears
C# A#m
Beside the crucifix
