G                       Em
come now, and now my love,
Am                   C                  G              Em
and leave your dying desert to the rains
G                       Em
give up your treasured wounds,
Am               C                        G            Em
let go the tempting memory of the pain.
C                 D
give up the vows you've taken
G                  Em                        C          Am   G
and you will live, and you will learn to fly away,
                    D
and you will fly.

G                   Em
and you will live my love
Am                  C                G                  Em
and see the stars regain your starless night
G                   Em
and you will find your sun
Am                   C                      G            Em
and learn the magic meaning of it's light

and i would love my love
Am                   C                   G              Em
and he would seek a refuge in my eyes
G                      Em
but no resource of love,
Am                     C                   G                  Em
could keep him from the fire where loving dies
C                                        D
and i would reach out my hand as he was
G            Em                 C            Am    G
falling, falling to his home on high
                      D
and he would fly

G Em Am C G Em

G                    Em
give up your treasured wounds,
Am                C                        G             Em
let go the tempting memory of the pain

give up the vows you've taken
