Intro:  C   F  (F comes in after the third beat on the Ohhh) x 4

Verse:

F                   C
Oh fair and flighty love
   Am        C
My aerolite above
                Em
The only dove I see

F                 C
Could you love me more
          Am              C
If by the sun and moon I swore
                   Em
That I would never flee?


Chorus:

       F                 C 
(Well) I still taste you on my lips
F             Em
Lovely bitter water
F                    C
The terrible fire of old regret
G              Am
Is honey on my tongue
      G                
And I know I shouldn't love you
  F                                
I know I shouldn't love you, but I do


C   F  x2 (just like intro)


Verse 2:

F               C
I feel it in my soul
  Am              C
I feel the empty hole
                      Em
The cup that can't be filled

      F             C
And I feel it in my blood
       Am            C
In the fire and the flood
                        Em
The beast that can't be killed


Chorus 2:

F            C
Even now you mark my steps
F             Em
Lovely bitter water
F               C
All the days of our delights are
G           Am
Poison in my veins
G
I know I shouldn't love you
F
I know...


Instrumental Bridge:

Chorus 3:

C                
I am not a fool entire
F                  C
No, I know what is coming
F              C
You'll bury me beneath the trees
G                      Am
I climbed when I was a child
G
I know I shouldn't love you
F                                C       
I know I should' love you, but I do
