Bear's Den – Magdalene (Ukulele)

Am      C             F                C
Sing a song for the daughters of Magdalene

G     Am              F        G
All tied up in their white ribbon

Am         C         F               C
November came and before I got your letter

         G      Am              F        G
I will love you better, I will love you true

Am    C           F            C         
Everyday, I would wait by the gates for you

G         Am            F         G
But with time how your heart withdrew

Am           C            F          C
You said I'd never understand the pain

     G         Am           F            G 
Or share the shame but you know that I wanted to

Am        C      F
But you gave me hope

             C
And now you take it away

G     Am     F
You took my love

            G
And now you celebrate

Am         C      F
When the morning comes

      C       G
No I don't believe

        Am          F
That my god, oh my god

              G
How could you take her from me?

Am        C            F          C
And so I told and the sisters of mercy came

G         Am         F     G
By your school just yesterday

Am       C            F             C
I never meant for to cause you any pain

           G      Am
I want to make it better

        F    G
Make it go away

Am         C             F           C
So sing a song, for the daughters of Magdalene

G     Am                  F    G
All smothered neath the white linen

Am       C                F    C   
If Mary knew how she was being used,

     G      Am                F      G
So misconstrued, how you were being used

Am        C      F
But you gave me hope

             C
And now you take it away

G     Am     F
You took my love

            G
And now you celebrate

Am         C      F
When the morning comes

      C       G
No I don't believe

        Am          F
That my god, oh my god

              G
How could you take her from me?

Am        C      F
But you gave me hope

             C
And now you take it away

G     Am     F
You took my love

            G
And now you celebrate

Am         C      F
When the morning comes

      C       G
No I don't believe

        Am          F
That my god, oh my god

              G
How could you take her from me?
