Write me if you use this.
Note: the timing of the words to the chord changes is
approximate, because the singer uses very elastic phrasing.
This is how I do it.
[verse]
C F When I think of heaven Am F C Deliver me in a black-winged bird F Am F C F I think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathers Am F C F And all other instruments of faith and sex and God Am F In the belly of a black-winged bird. Am F Don't try to feed me Am F I've been here before C D And I deserve a little more
[chorus]
F Am C D F I belong in the service of the Queen F Am C D F I belong anywhere but in between F Am C D She's been crying and I've been thinking F Am C D And I am the Rain King
[verse]
D C F Am F And I said mama, mama, mama, why am I so alone? C F I can't go outside Am F I'm scared I might not make it home C F I'm alive, I'm alive Am F But I'm sinking in C F If there's anyone at home at your place, darling Am F Why don't you invite me in? Am F Don't try to bleed me Am F I've been there before C D And I deserve a little more
[chorus]
F Am C D F I belong in the service of the Queen F Am C D F I belong anywhere but in between F Am C D She's been lying and I've been sinking F Am C D And I am the Rain King
[bridge]
Am C F Hey, I only want the same as anyone Am C F Am Henderson is waiting for the sun C F Oh, it seems night endlessly begins and ends Am C F After all the dreaming I come home again
repeat C F Am F 2x here
[verse]
C F When I think of heaven Am F C Deliver me in a black-winged bird F Am I think of dying F C F Lay me down in a field of flame and heather Am F C F Render up my body into the burning heart of God Am F In the belly of a black-winged bird Am F Don't try to bleed me Am F I've been here before C D And I deserve a little more
[chorus]
F Am C D F I belong in the service of the queen F Am C D F I belong anywhere but in between F Am C D She's been dying and I've been drinking F Am C D And I am the Rain King
