==VERSE==
F C Dm Bb
How did I love you? There was no measuring
F C Dm Bb
Far above this dirty world, far above everything
Bb C Dm
In your tower over it, you were clean
==VERSE==
F C Dm Bb
So warm and insightful were you in my eyes
F C Dm Bb
I was sure the rightful guardian of my life
Bb C Dm
Damn you betrayer, how you lied!
==CHORUS==
Bb
But for seven years
C F C
You were loved, I laid golden orchid crowns around your feet
Bb
And for seven years
C F C
I bowed down to touch the ground so holy; your devotee
Bb Db Dm
You were, you were all that I could see
==VERSE==
F C Dm Bb
I've got my sight now, I see everything you hid
F C Dm Bb
So don't you try to right now all the wrong you did
Bb C Dm
I might forget you, but not forgive
==CHORUS==
Bb
But for seven years
C F C
You were loved, I laid golden orchid crowns around your feet
Bb
And for seven years
C F C
I bowed down to touch the ground so holy; your devotee
Bb C
And for seven years, you were so revered
F C
I made offerings of anything and everything I had
Bb Db Dm
You were, you were all that I could see
==OUTRO==
Bb Db Dm
You were, you were all that I could see (repeat x4)
