Title : Mary Waits in Silence
Em G C
Em G C
I shall return no more
Em G C
The sea covers me
A C
To pick gold from the skies
Em G C
I shall wait between the spaces
Em G C
I shall return no more
Em G C
Imperium et nihil
A C
The silence has folded
Em G C
Inside and out
Em G C
And Mary waits in silence
Em G C
Imperium nihil est
A C
In the gap between
Em D
His thought and his word
C G
Something is finished
D C
And something is born
A C
In the place where words cease
Em G C
In the moment when
Em G C
Actions no longer matter
Em G C
Oh the sky may darken
A C
The curtain tear
Em G C
She shall wait
Em G C
Silver dust falls from her hair
Em G C
Waits a span or a time
A C
Sketches of her life swirl
Em G C
Around her silence silent
Em G C
The sounds of her silence
Em G C
The forms that they take
A C
They cover me still
Em
My fingers twist in pain
D C G
Words are finished
D C
And I come swiftly
A C
And with a vengeance
Em
And Mary waits in silence
