[Intro 1]
[G][Bb][C][Bb][Gm][G][Gm][Bb][C][Eb]

[Verse 1]
[G]Virgin [Gm]Mary [Bb]on a chain
Has [C]hit me in [Bb]the mouth again
As [Gsus4]we explor[G]e the carnal[Bb] score
Of [C]sacred and pro[Eb]fane[Cm]

[Verse 2]
[G]Sulky boy [Gm]won't [Bb]drink his milk
So [C]mother's breast be[Bb]neath the silk
Re[Gm]main[G]s untouched [Gm]it's w[Bb]ay too much
Re[C]ject all of [Eb]that ilk

[Verse 3]
[Eb]I ha[G]ve to sa[Eb]y it makes me won[F]der[Eb]
If you are [G]holdin' [Eb]me[F][Eb]
To [G]the same blue [Eb]flame that
you are [F]under[Eb]
'Coz I feel [G]you scoldin' me

[Interlude 1]
[Eb][F][G][Eb]

[Verse 4]
It makes me wonder [Gm](It makes
[Eb]me w[G]onde[Eb]r)
It makes me wonder
[Gm](It makes [Bb]me w[G]onder)
Virgin [Gm]Mary's

[Verse 5]
in [Bb]Her
[C]way
Hallucinate her [Bb]face by day
Obscure [G]the view in [Bb]front of you
It's [C]me here made of clay
[Eb]

[Verse 6]
You're [G]playin' near [Gm]that line [Bb]so thin
[C]Austerity [Bb]or just give in
To [Gm]end l[G]ess [Gsus4]ap pet ite[Gm][Bb]
Embrace that [C]white oblivion
[Eb]

[Verse 7]
I [G]have [Gm]to sa[Eb]y it makes me wo[F]nder[Eb]
If you are [G]holdin' me
(If you are hold[Eb]in' me)
(If you are holdin' me)
[F](If you are holdin' [Eb]me)
To that [G]calm blue [Eb]flame that
you are [Cm]under[F][Eb]
When you are [G]holdin' me
(When you are holdin' me)
(When you are hold[Eb]in' me)
(When you are holdin' me)

[Verse 8]
[F]And [Eb]why [G]so h[Dm]igh e[Eb]xpectation?
[F]Who[Eb] could live up to t[G]his?[Eb][F][Eb]
And there's [G]no [Dm]time
[Eb]now for explanation
[F]Coo[Eb]l as an angels [G]kiss
[Eb][F]

[Verse 9]
[Eb]
An[G]d I have to [Eb]say it
makes me [Cm]wonder[F][Eb]
If you were [G]holdin' me
(If you were holdin' me)
(If you were hold[Eb]in' me)
[F](If you [Bb]were[Eb] holdin' me)
To that [G]calm blue [Eb]flame that
you are [F]under[Bb][Eb]
When you were [G]holdin' me
(When you were holdin' me)
(When you were [Eb]holdin'
[F]me)[G][Gm][Bb]

[Verse 10]
It makes me wonder (It makes
[Bb]me wonder)
I could [Gm]say[Bb]
(I could say)
It makes [Bb]me wonder
(It makes me wonder)
I could say
(I could say)
It makes me wonder
(It makes me wonder)
I could say
(I could say)
It makes me wonder
(It makes me wonder)
