D                  Bm7         E7     G
Guess I wasn't the best one to ask

   D                   Bm7                       E7      G
Me myself with my face pressed up against love's glass

           Em                  D
To see the shiny toy i've been hoping for

          G           A7
The one I never can afford
[Verse 2]
    D                    Bm7
The wide world spins and spits turmoil

        E7               G
And the nations toil for peace

    D             Bm7
The paws of fear upon your chest

     E7                   G
Only love can soothe that beast

       Em               D
And my words are paper tigers

                 G           A7
No match for the predator of pain inside her
[Chorus]
      D         Dmaj7   G
I say love will come to you

              D                 Dmaj7              G
Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true

                   Em           D            G
As if I've offered up a crystal ball to look through

                      A                 D
And where there's now one there will be two
D Bm7 E7 G [Verse 3]
D             Bm7            E7     G
I was born under the sign of cancer (love will come to you)

              D                  Bm7             E7     G
Like brushing cloth I smooth the wrinkles for an answer (love will come)

           Em              D
I'm always closing my eyes wishing I'm fine  (I close my eyes and wish you fine)

G                        A
even though I'm not this time  (even though I know your not this time)
[[Chorus]
      D         Dmaj7   G
I say love will come to you

              D                 Dmaj7              G
Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true

                   Em           D            G
As if I've offered up a crystal ball to look through

                      A                 D
And where there's now one there will be two
[Instrumental] D Bm7 E7 G D Bm7 E7 G [Bridge]
             Em                  D
Dodging your memories a field of knives (Dodging your memories)

              G                             A7
Always on the outside looking in on other's lives
[Chorus]
      D         Dmaj7   G
I say love will come to you

              D                 Dmaj7              G
Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true
(Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true)
                   Em           D            G
As if I've offered up a crystal ball to look through (I have offered up to you)

                      A                 D
And where there's now one there will be two
[Ending]
               Bm7                      C
And I wish her insight to battle love's blindness

                  Bm7           G
Strength from the milk of human kindness

                 G                   A
A safe place for all the pieces that scattered

            Em           D          G        A7   D
Learn to pretend there's more than love that ma-a-tters
[Outro] D Bm7 E7 G D Bm7 E7 G
