Edim F
She stands before you naked

Bb/F     F
You can see it, you can taste it

                     F/A     Bb      C
But she comes to you light as  the breeze

F/G      C7
You can drink or you can nurse it

F/C C7                          Gm7 Cdim7
It don't matter how you worship

   C7             C9/E           F
As long as you're down on your knees

Gm7   F
So I knelt there at the delta
At the alpha and the omega
Bdim7/C  F            F/A   Bb C7     
At the cradle of the river and   the seas

F/G          C7
And like a blessing come from heaven,

F/G  C7
For something like a second,

F/G    C7            C7/E          F
I was healed, and my heart was at ease
[Chorus]
    A7
Oh baby I waited

    Dm
So long for your kiss

    A7
For something to happen

Bb       F/A   Bb   F/C   C#dim7    
Oh, something like this

  Dm  Gm7 F/A Bb6 | F/C Ddim7 Em7b5
Ah
[Verse 2]
Em7b5       F
And you're weak and you're harmless
And you're sleeping in your harness
Bdim7/C   F         F/A Bb C7                 
And the wind going wild in the trees

F/G      C7
And it's not exactly prison

     F/G    C7
But you'll never be forgiven

F/G     C7         C7/E            F
For whatever you've done with the keys
[Chorus]
    A7
Oh baby I waited

    Dm
So long for your kiss

    A7
For something to happen

Bb       F/A   Bb   F/C   C#dim7    
Oh, something like this

     Dm7             Gm7 F/A Bb6 | Bb/C 
Something like this
[Verse 3]
      F
It's dark and it's snowing
Oh my love, I must be going
              F/A     Bb     C
The river is starting   to freeze

Gm7    C7
And I'm sick of pretending

Dm/G     C7                 F/D
And I'm broken from bending

C              Em7b5       F 
I've lived too long on my knees

          F
And she dances so graceful 
And your heart's hard and hateful
Bdim7/C    F         F/A         Bb  C7
And she's naked, but that's just a tease

F/G      C7
And you turn in disgust

     F/G   C7
From your hatred, from your love

F/G      C7          C7/E          F
And she comes to you light as the breeze
[Chorus]
    A7
Oh baby I waited

    Dm
So long for your kiss

    A7
For something to happen

Bb       F/A  Bb   F/C      C#dim7 
Oh, something    like this

              Dm
Something like  this

D
Oh
[Verse 4]
C/E  D7/F#     G  N.C.
Well there's blood on every bracelet

         G 
You can see it, you can taste it

                      G/B  C  C#dim7  D
And it's please baby, please baby,    please

             D9
And she says, drink deeply, pilgrim

Em9/D    D7
Don't forget there's still a woman

Em/D D          D7/F#    G                       
Beneath this resplendent chemise

Am7    G
So I knelt there at the delta

C/G      G                 Gm7/D
At the alpha and the omega

D9      G              G/B    C     D                  
Now I knelt there like one who believes

             D9
And like a blessing come from heaven

Em/A    D7
   For something like a second

Em/A   D             D7#5      G
I was cured, and my heart was at ease
[Chorus]
   B7
Oh baby I waited

   Em
So long for your kiss

    B7
For something to happen

C         G/B  C    G/D    C
Oh, something like this

        C#dim7    G/D       B7/D#  Em
Something     like    this

A7  C/D  Em7 D7/F#    G            
Oh, something   like this
Yeah
