         Am          F*     C
There is light in my lady’s house

            Am            F*      C
And there’s none but some falling rain

 Am         F*     C
Less like a spoken word

       Am            F*       C
She is more than her thousand names

G                     F*
 No hands are half as gentle

C                    G
Firm as they like to be

Am                       F*
Thank god you see me the way you do

C
Strange as you are to me.
Bridge - As Intro and Chorus
      Am         F*     C
It is good in my ladies house

        Am             F*   C
And the shape that her body makes

Am        F*      C
Love is a fragile word

       Am         F*      C
In the air on the length we lay

G                     F*
 No hands are half as gentle, or,

C                    G
Firm as they like to be

Am                        F*
 Thank God you see me the way you do

C                     G
Strange as you are to me.
Outro - As Intro Use lots of palm muting and hammer-ons in this song, especially in the C and G with your middle finger. Never strum the full chord, just hit a couple of strings at a time. --tabbed by Christopher
