lyrics and chords of: Hymn To Her by The Pretenders

C
Let me inside you

          F
Into your room

                Am
I've heard it's lined

         F                C
With the things you don't show.

C
Lay me beside you

            F
Down on the Floor

                Am
I've been your lover

         F           C
From the womb to the tomb

  F             Am
I dress as your daughter

         F            C
When the moon becomes round

F         Am
You be my mother

     F            C
When everything's gone

             C    Em      F
And she will always carry on

              C
Something is lost

                   G
But something is found

           C    Em              F
They will keep on speaking her name

             C
Some things change

              G
Some stay the same

     C
Keep beckoning to me

                        F
From behind that closed door

     Am           F
The maid and the mother

         F                 C
And the crone that's grown old

            C
I hear your voice

                    F
Coming out of that hole

  F         Am
I listen to you

      F         C
And I want some more

  F         Am
I listen to you

      Bb        C
And I want some more

             C    Em      F
And she will always carry on

              C
Something is lost

                  G
But something is found

          C     Em             F
They will keep on speaking her name

            C
Some things change

              G    F
Some stay the same

             C    Em      F
And she will always carry on

              C
Something is lost

                  G
But something is found

          C     Em             F
They will keep on speaking her name

            C
Some things change

              G
Some stay the same

C
Let me inside you

          F
Into your room

                Am
I've heard it's lined

         F                C
With the things you don't show.

C
Lay me beside you

            F
Down on the Floor

               Am
I've been your lover

         F           C
From the womb to the tomb

     F             Am
I'll dress as your daughter

         F             C
When the moon becomes round

F            Am
You'll be my mother

     F            C
When everything's gone

             C    Em      F
And she will always carry on

              C
Something is lost

                  G
But something is found

          C     Em             F
They will keep on speaking her name

            C
Some things change

              G     F
Some stay the same

         C    Em      F
She will always carry on

             C
Something is lost

                 G
But something is found

          C     Em             F
They will keep on speaking her name

            C
Some things change

              G     F
Some stay the same

         C    Em      F
She will always carry on

              C
Something is lost

                  G
But something is found

          C     Em             F
They will keep on speaking her name

            C
Some things change

              G          Bb
Some stay the same
