[Verse 1]
[D]Oh, [G]the[D][G][D]
Sisters of
[G]Mercy, they [D]are not departed
[A]or [D]gone[G][D]
They were [F#m]waiting for me when [F#sus4]I
thought [F#m]that I just can't go o[A]n
And they [G]brought me their [D]comfort,
and [C]later they [Bm]brought me this [A]song[G][F#m][Em]
I [D]hope you run in[G]to them,
[D]you have been [A]traveling so [D]long[G][D]
[G]Yes, you[D] must lea[G]ve everything
[D]that you cannot [A]con[D]trol[G][D]
It be[F#m]gins with your f[C#m]amily,
but [F#m]soon it gets a[C#m]round to y[A]our soul
And I've [G]been where you're [D]hangin',
I [C]think I can [Bm]see how you're p[A]ainin'[G][F#m]
[A]When you're [D]not feelin' [G]holy,
[D]loneliness tell[A]s you you've s[G]inned[D][G][D][A]
[G][D]
Where they laid down beside [G]me,
I [D]made my confes[A]sion to [D]them[G][D]
[F#m]They touched both my e[C#m]yes,
and [F#m]I touched the [C#m]dew on their hair[A]
If [G]life is [D]a leaf that the [C]seasons tear
[Bm]off and cond[A]emn[G][F#m]
[A]They [E]will [D]bind you with [G]love that is
[D]graceful [A]and green as a [G]stem[D]
[G]When [D]I left they were sleepi[G]ng,
I [D]hope you run [A]in to them [D]soon[G][D]
[F#m]Don't turn on [C#m]the lights,
you can [F#m]read their add[C#m]ress by the m[A]oon
And it [G]won't make me [D]jealous if I [C]hear that
they've [Bm]sweetened your [A]night[G][F#m]
[Em]We w[A]eren't l[D]overs like t[G]hat,
And be[D]sides, it would [A]still be all [G]right.
