Blood of eden

Intro: 
------ 
Bb, Eb  
 
Verse: 
------ 
 
   I caught sight of my reflection 
Bb                        Eb 
 
   I caught it in the window 
                      Bb 
 
   I saw the darkness in my heart 
                            Eb 
 
   I saw the signs of my undoing 
Bb 
 
   They had been there from the start 
Eb 
 
   And the darkness still has work to do 
Bb 
 
   The knotted chord's untying 
Eb 
 
The heated and the holy 
    Bb 
 
Oh they're sitting there on high 
           Eb    
 
So secure with everything they're buying 
     Bb                           Eb 
In the blood of Eden     lie the woman and the man 
                Ab   Eb          Bb            Cm 
 
With the man in the woman and the woman in the man 
         Ab         Eb            Bb           Cm       
 
In the blood of Eden     lie the woman and the man 
                Ab   Eb          Bb            Cm 
 
We wanted the the union    oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man 
                  Ab    Eb Bb     Ab/Bb        Bb         Fm/Bb         Eb 
........... 
Bb Eb  
 
{verse} 
My grip is surely slipping 
I think I've lost my hold 
Yes I think I've lost my hold 
I cannot get insurance any more 
They don't take credit, only gold 
Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see 
You hold so tightly in your hand 
And all the while the distance grows between you and me 
I do not understand 
 
{Chorus} 
In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man 
With the man in the woman and the woman in the man 
In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man 
We wanted the the union    oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man 
                  Ab    Eb Bb     Ab/Bb        Bb         Fm/Bb         Cm 
 
Bridge: 
------- 
   At my  request      you take me in 
Cm    Cm/Ab Bb    Bb/G     Cm/Ab      
 
   In that tenderness     I am floating away 
Cm         Cm/Ab Bb  Bb/G      Cm/Ab     Cm 
 
   No certainty,      nothing to rely on 
      Cm/Ab  Bb Bb/G             Cm/Ab 
 
   Holding still      for a moment 
Cm Cm/Ab   Bb    Bb/G       Cm/Ab 
 
What a moment this is 
       F 
 
Oh for a moment of forgetting 
         Cm/Ab 
 
A moment of bliss 
  F 
 
Oh.... 
Eb     Bb, Eb 
 
{verse} 
I can hear the distant thunder 
Of a million unheard souls 
Of a million unheard souls 
Watch each one reach for creature comfort 
For the filling of their holes 
 
{Chorus} 
In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man 
I feel the man in the woman and the woman in the man 
In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man 
I feel the man in the woman and the woman in the man 
           Ab         Eb            Bb           Cm       
 
In the blood of Eden we have done everything we can 
In the blood of Eden, so we end as we began 
With the man in the woman and the woman in the man 
It was all for the union,   oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man 
                   Ab    Eb Bb     Ab/Bb        Bb         Fm/Bb         Cm
