Verse:
I caught sight of my reflection
SIb MIb
I caught it in the window
SIb
I saw the darkness in my heart
MIb
I saw the signs of my undoing
SIb
They had been there from the start
MIb
And the darkness still has work to do
SIb
The knotted chord's untying
MIb
The heated and the holy
SIb
Oh they're sitting there on high
MIb
So secure with everything they're buying
SIb MIb
Chorus

In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
SOL# MIb SIb DOm
We wanted the the union oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man

[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
SOL# MIb SIb SOL#/SIb SIb FAm/SIb DOm
Bridge:
At my request you take me in
DOm DOm/SOL# SIb SIb/SOL DOm/SOL#
In that tenderness I am floating away
DOm DOm/SOL# SIb SIb/SOL DOm/SOL# DOm
No certainty, nothing to rely on
DOm/SOL# SIb SIb/SOL DOm/SOL#
Holding still for a moment
DOm DOm/SOL# SIb SIb/SOL DOm/SOL#
What a moment this is
FA
Oh for a moment of forgetting
DOm/SOL#
A moment of bliss
FA
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
SOL# MIb SIb DOm
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
SOL# MIb SIb SOL#/SIb SIb FAm/SIb DOm
