(this is my first tab and I am not sure about the Dminor, it might just be an F instead) [Intro] The sun is leaning on the darkness again And we sing
F      C    F
Oh, deliver me
[Verse 1]
F                Bb
 I saw images of god

                        Dm
Reflected out upon the deep

                C
By prehistoric stars

                     F
Through millennia of grief

                Bb
Spiritless and haunted

                    Dm
Like some excarnate beast

                         C
Still I feel the ancient lights of heaven

                 F
Pressing down on me
[Pre-Chorus]
F                 Bb           Dm
 And the day changes at midnight

                    C
But you don't know it

                      F
Until the morning light

               Bb             Dm
And the footsteps of the midwife

                    C
Are already in motion
And in motion we sing [Chorus]
F             Bb
Whoa, deliver me

   F           C
Oh-oh, deliver me, yeah

F                         Bb
The sun is leaning on the darkness again
And we sing
F      C    F
Oh, deliver me
[Verse 2]
F                        Bb
 We traded souls on the shoals of Babylon

                  Dm
When they bought yours down to the floor

            C
Man, I was sure that mine was gone

F
Everything inside me

        Bb
Wanted somewhere to belong

               Dm
But something deep inside my body screamed

      C
That all of this was wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
F                 Bb           Dm
 And the day changes at midnight

                      C
Still you don't know it

                      F
Until the morning light

               Bb             Dm
And the footsteps of the midwife

                    C
Are already in motion
And in motion we sing [Chorus 2]
F             Bb
Whoa, deliver me

   F           C
Oh-oh, deliver me
[Post-Chorus]
F
All my feelings are up on the ceiling

Bb
All my grieving, all my believing

Dm
All my feelings are up on the ceiling

C
All my feelings are up on the ceiling

F
All my feelings are up on the ceiling

Bb
All my grieving, all my believing

Dm
All my feelings are up on the ceiling

C
All my feelings are up on the ceiling

F                           Bb
 The sun is leaning on the darkness again
And we sing
F      C    F
Oh, deliver me
[Verse 3]
F                         Bb
Every human creature is a galaxy of thought

          Dm
You could spend your life on one

        C
And it wouldn't be for not

        F
Do you look at many people

        Bb
But you see so very few

         Dm
From the disenchanted distance

          C
It's what desperate people do
Yeah but... [Pre-Chorus] (Don't you know that)
F
All my feelings are up on the ceiling

Bb
All my grieving, all my believing

Dm
All my feelings are up on the ceiling

C
All my feelings are up on the ceiling

F                 Bb           Dm
 And the day changes at midnight
(All my feelings are up on the ceiling) (All my grieving, all my believing) (All my feelings are up on the ceiling)
                      C
Still you don't know it
(All my feelings are up on the ceiling)
                     F
For another six hours
(All my feelings are up on the ceiling)
               Bb             Dm
And the footsteps of the midwife
(All my grieving, all my believing) (All my feelings are up on the ceiling)
                    C
Are already in motion
(All my feelings are up on the ceiling) And in motion we sing [Chorus]
F             Bb
Whoa, deliver me

   F           C
Oh-oh, deliver me, yeah

F                         Bb
