G D
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +

I caught sight of my reflection
I caught it in the window
I saw the darkness in my heart
I saw the signs of my undoing
They had been there from the start
And the darkness still has work to do
The knotted chord's untying
They're heated and they're holy
Oh they're sitting there on high
So secure with everything they're buying

G D
In the blood of Eden
A
Lie the woman and the man
G D
With the man in the woman
A
And the woman in the man
G D
In the blood of Eden
A
Lie the woman and the man
G D
We wanted the union
A
Oh the union of the woman
A
The woman and the man

Repeat Verse Progression

My grip is surely slipping
I think I've lost my hold
Yes, I think I've lost my hold
I cannot get insurance anymore
They don't take credit, only gold
Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see
You hold so tightly in your hand
And all the while the distance grows between you and me
I do not understand

G D
In the blood of Eden
A
Lie the woman and the man
G D
With the man in the woman
A
And the woman in the man
G D
In the blood of Eden
A
Lie the woman and the man
G D
We wanted the union
A
Oh the union of the woman
A D
The woman and the man

At my request, you take me in

In that tenderness, I am floating away

No certainty, nothing to rely on
A
Holding still
Bm
For a moment
E
What a moment this is
Bm
Oh for a moment of forgetting
E Esus4 E2
A moment of bliss
D A
Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

D A D

A D
I can hear the distant thunder
A
Of a million unheard souls
D
Of a million unheard souls
A D
Watch each one reach for creature comfort
A D
For the filling of their holes


G D
In the blood of Eden
A
Lie the woman and the man
G D
With the man in the woman
A
And the woman in the man

In the blood of Eden
A
Lie the woman and the man

We wanted the union
A
Oh the union of the woman
A D
The woman and the man
