[Verse]
C Bb Gm Bb C Bb Gm Bb
Move away from the window and into the light
C Bb Gm Bb C Bb Gm Bb C Bb Gm
There are some things in this life that you just can't fight
C Bb Gm Bb C Bb Gm Bb
It's as if the spirits above have cast a little spell upon us
C Bb Gm Bb C Bb Gm Bb
It's as if heaven above is beckoning us
C Bb Gm Bb
So let us take off our crosses and lay them in a tin
C Bb Gm Bb
And let our weakness become virtue instead of sin
C Bb Gm Bb
Our bodies stand naked as the day they were born
C Bb Gm Bb C Bb Gm Bb
And tremble like animals before a coming storm
[Chorus]
Am C F G
Take me beyond love
Am G F G
Up to something above
Am C F G
Upon this bed, between these sheets
Am G F
Take me to a happiness beyond human reach

[Verse]
C Bb Gm Bb
The force of life is rushing through our veins
C Bb Gm Bb
In and out like the tide it comes in waves
C Bb Gm Bb
The drops of semen and the clots of blood
C Bb Gm Bb
Which may, one day, become like us
C Bb Gm Bb
With outstretched hands reaching beyond love
C Bb Gm Bb C Bb Gm Bb
And up to something above
C Bb Gm Bb
Before our juices run cold and our flesh grows old
C Bb Gm Bb
Let me feed upon your breast and draw closer to your soul
C Bb Gm Bb
Let me stay with you tonight and I'll offer you my world
C Bb Gm Bb C
I'll take you to the angels if you'll take me to myself
[Instrumental]

Beyond the grasp of lust

Beyond the need for trust

Beyond the gaze of the sick and the lame
Am G F
Beyond the stench of human pain
