Shadowland - Sarah Slean

[Cm7] [Cm7/Ab]
I have [Cm7]been to the shadowland
I [Cm7/Ab]heard the empty call
of [Cm7/F]hatred, anorexia
[Cm7/Ab]Misery and alcohol[Gm/B]
By their [Cm7]hearths I warmed myself
To es[Cm7/Ab]cape from the winter years
Until I [Cm7/F]saw in the window
Myself [Cm7/Ab]crying fire-coloured tea[Gm/B]rs
[Cm]Love, the only alchemy
[Cm/Ab]Love, the killer of despair
[Cm/F]Love, the patient samurai
[Cm/Ab]Love, the armour angels wea[Gm/B]r
[Cm]Love[Cm7/Ab]
They [Cm7]turned away the prophet
Because she was [Cm7/Ab]young and full of longing
Instead they [Cm7/F]turned to the magistrate
Who was [Cm7/Ab]busy yawning[Gm/B]
And they [Cm7]try to sell me holy books
But I can [Cm7/Ab]see their eyes are wild
I caught them [Cm7/F]pouring shame and fear
Into the [Cm7/Ab]perfect vessel of a chil[Gm/B]d
[Cm]Bue love's the only alchemy
[Cm/Ab]Love, the killer of despair
[Cm/F]Love, the true nobility
[Cm/Ab]Love, the armour angels wear[Gm/B]
[Cm]Love
[Cm7/Ab]Love will make your eyes clear
[Cm7/F]The order of the universe
[Cm7/Ab]The only reason we are here[Cm7]
