  A            D 
I saw from the cathedral 
Bm                E 
You were watching me 
      A            D  
And I saw from the cathedral 
Bm            E 
What I should be 
           D  
So take my lies 
            A 
And take my time 
               E      D               A      
'Cause all the others want to take my life 

    A             D 
É deserto onde eu te encontrei 
Bm              E 
 Você me viu passar 
         A       D 
Correndo só, nem pude ver 
Bm                E 
 Que o tempo é maior 
          D            A 
Olhei pra mim, me vi assim 
               E    D 
Tão perto de chegar  onde 
            A 
Você não está 

E               A 
Serious for the winter time 
E             A 
To wrench my soul 
E                  A 
Whole cotton whole cotton ears 
      D  
But I know there must be 
       Bm 
Yes, I know there must be 
       E4                            E 
Yes, I know there must be a place to go 
        A            D 
You saw me, from the cathedral 
Bm                   E  
Well, I'm an ancient heart 
           A             D      
Yes, you saw me from the cathedral 
Bm                   E   
And here we are just falling apart 
          D 
You catch me 
      Bm  
I am tired 
       E4       E     A  D  Bm  E  A  D  Bm  E  
I want all that you are 

        A  
Se eu disser 
         D 
Que foi por amor 
Bm 
 Não vou mentir 
    E 
Pra mim 
      A            D       
And I saw from the cathedral 
Bm                   E 
You could not see to see 
            D 
And take my time 
            A   
So take my lies 
               E  
'Cause all the others  
D               A 
Want to take my life
