Hopefully this helps anyone who is having a hard time figuring out this beautiful song.
The words may not lineup exactly but these are the
chords for the three repeating parts. When I play it on piano, that second Bb is
actually a Gm with Bb in the bass.
F Bb C F Am Bb C7
F Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am G Am
F Am Bb Am
F Bb C F Am Bb C7
F Dm Am
In Heaven worm souls flutter
Dm Am Dm Am G Am F Am Bb Am
They flutter by with rosaries dangling round their necks
F Bb C F Am Bb C
German shepherds guard by nightfall little kinder
F Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am G Am F Am Bb Am
little kinder dressed in starlight
F Bb C F Am Bb
Inside I feel like
C7 F Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am G Am
like I'm crying beside a tree
F Am Bb Am F Bb C F Am Bb C7
I'm watching myself like an old T.V.
F Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am G Am
I'm watching myself like an old movie on color T.V.
F Bb C F Am Bb C7
When people whisper in Portuguese it's just as mysterious
F Dm Am Dm
and the stubble on his face it hurt me when
Am Dm Am G Am F Am Bb Am
when we fell onto each other's faces
F Bb C F Am Bb C7
Dawn retraces heartache patterns across grey oceans
F Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am G Am
F Am Bb Am
F Bb C
Windows brighten up the room
F Am Bb C7
and one could cast a smooth worn lover's stone
F Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am G Am
worn smooth from days of fertile deliberation
repeats a couple more times
