[Verse 1]
               C                 Em       C     Em
Just give me a second darling to clear my head,

         C                 Em                 C     Em
Just put down those scissors baby on the single bed,

    C                     Em
The sand in the hourglass is running low,

  C                                        Em
I came through thunder, the cold wind, the rain and the snow,

   Am                 
To find you awake by your window sill

  G                         F            C
A sight for sore eyes and a view to kill

  C                       Em
I broke down in horror at you standing there,

    C                                Em
The glow from the moon shone through cracks in your hair,

  C                       Em
I shouted with passion 'I love you so much',

    C                      Em
But feeling my skin it was cold to the touch,

    Am                  
You whispered where are you? I questioned you doubt,

    G                      F                  C
But soon realised you were talking to God now,
[Chorus]
               F                      G
But you've got blood on your hands,

                Am           
And I know it's mine, I just need more time,

   F                       G                        Am
So get off your low, let's dance like we used to,

              F                        G
And there's a light in the distance,

            Am         
Waiting for me, and I will wait for you,

   F                       G                        C
So get off your low, let's kiss like we used to
[Verse 2]
  C                        Em
I looked in the mirror but something was wrong,

  C                     Em
I saw you behind but my reflection was gone,

  C                     Em            
There was smoke in the fireplace as white as the snow,

  C                           Em
A voice beckoned gently, 'Now it's time to go',

  Am                     
A requiem played as you begged for forgiveness,

      G                               F                 C
Don't touch me I screamed, I've got unfinished business
[Chorus] (x2)
               F                      G
But you've got blood on your hands,

                Am           
And I know it's mine, I just need more time,

   F                       G                        Am
So get off your low, let's dance like we used to,

              F                        G
And there's a light in the distance,

            Am         
Waiting for me, and I will wait for you,

   F                       G                        C
So get off your low, let's kiss like we used to
