Verse:
 
F                   C
Oh fair and flighty love
   Am        C
My aerolite above
                Em
The only dove I see
 
F                 C
Could you love me more
          Am              C
If by the sun and moon I swore
                   Em
That I would never flee?
 
 
Chorus:
 
       F                 C
(Well) I still taste you on my lips
F             Em
Lovely bitter water
F                    C
The terrible fire of old regret
G              Am
Is honey on my tongue
      G
And I know I shouldn't love you
  F
I know I shouldn't love you, but I do
 
 
C   F  x2 (just like intro)
 
 
Verse 2:
 
F               C
I feel it in my soul
  Am              C
I feel the empty hole
                      Em
The cup that can't be filled
 
      F             C
And I feel it in my blood
       Am            C
In the fire and the flood
                        Em
The beast that can't be killed
 
 
Chorus 2:
 
F            C
Even now you mark my steps
F             Em
Lovely bitter water
F               C
All the days of our delights are
G           Am
Poison in my veins
G
I know I shouldn't love you
F
I know...

Chorus 3:
 
C
I am not a fool entire
F                  C
No, I know what is coming
F              C
You'll bury me beneath the trees
G                      Am
I climbed when I was a child
G
I know I shouldn't love you
F                                C
I know I should' love you, but I do
