F#m7 G#m7 A F#m9
[Verse]
F#m9
The old gates are always locked
B7
By the daughter of the keys
F#m9
Sad eyes are fixed on the world
B7
From the balcony
A B/G#
While the six o'clock procession
B7/F# C#sus4
Take their prayer books to the hall
F#m B
It's sad to see them shed a tear
A F#m7
Inside the convent walls
F#m9
Red mountains around them
B7
Keep out those who'd come
F#m9
But only birds and wild deer
B7
Share the lives of nuns
A B/G#
For ladies who in kindness
B7/F# C#sus4
Burn the knowledge they have found
F#m B
Their knowledge lies inside a hole
A F#m
Buried in the ground
[Chorus]
F#m7 B9
For the Sisters of the Cross
F#m7 B9
Seek the shadows that they have lost
E A
In the walls where their lives
E A
Are protected by God
F#7 B9
But the feeling of love
F#7 B9
Is somehwere in your bones
A
Your body is wasted
C#sus4
When it should have been owned
F#m9
The Mother of the mission bells
B7
Has lived here all her life
F#m9
She never felt the hands of man
B7
Touch her in the night
A B/G#
And the canopies that cover her
B7/F# C#sus4
So cold and so afraid
F#m B
Thinking holy mothers die
A B
Like spinsters in the grave
F#m9
To be single in the chapel
B7
Praying knelt down on your knees
F#m9
Where the corridors are echoing
B7
Their proud solemnity
A B/G#
And the candle light against the glass
B7/F# C#sus4
Plays shadow chasing tricks
F#m B
As the young girls fall, their eyes in tears
A F#m
Beside the crucifix
