David Gray – Mystery Of Love chords

[Intro]
A   A   D A  E7
A   A   D A  Bm

[Verse]
AThe city gates at twilight
    AAnd a red ship sinking
A                            E7Behind winter's grey wall

AIce in the wind
      ABut a fire in the embers
      DOf my heart
   A                BmAs darkness falls
   AIn a candlelit room
            AWhere your eyes are laughing
D               A           E7Smoking in the red chair
AAnd nothing in the world
          A'cept the beating of my heart
            DAgainst the nerves of the air

A      D A  E7

       AAnd I know there's a light
       AAt the end of the tunnel
         D                   A E7'cause I taste it on your lips
    AAnd I feel a weight
         AThat can bend me double
    D                A           BmYou lift it with your fingertips
   ASo often it happens
     AThat words prove useless
       D       A            E7In the face of how it feels
      A                     ASo it is as the mystery of love

Keeps growing
   D        E       AThe more my heart reveals

A   D E  A
A   D  A E7  A
A   D A  E7

    ATemptations endless whispers
       ATry to keep it in perspective
D           A        E7So much to distract
AWalking on a wire
            AWhile your juggling desire
         D            A             E7It's all part of your balancing act
            AAnd it gets hard to know
     AJust what you believe
       D                E7As the argument rages on
        ABut for all of the talk
          AIt's only true to say
            DThat if you have no hope
         AThere is none... bridge

[Verse]
  AA tangle of tongues
AFlesh flowers and thistles
    D           A              E7Of conscience, spittle and skin
    AWe can't change the past
         A                      DSo we'll raise this cup to our lips
    A               E7And drink it all in
    A                 AAnd meantime back in civilisation
    D       A       EThe rain is cold as steel
        ABut the mystery of love
    AIt just keep growing
    D       C#m7    AThe more my heart reveals

I'm bridging, I'm bridging...

[Bridge]

[Verse]
   AAs sure as the rose
    F#m         AThe bright day blooms
    D               A   E7As surely still it fades
        AAnd the night kindles stars
    F#mOn empty winds
    D                          E7And ghosts along the collonades
    AAnd slow but sure
    F#mThe sands are falling
        D     AAs the bridge burns
            E7Beneath the wheel
        AAnd the mystery of love
    F#mIt just keeps growing
    D       E7      AThe more my heart reveals
    D       E       AThe more my heart reveals

[Outro]
    D       E       AThe more my heart reveals (keep going)
    D       E       AThe more my heart reveals

(just let it play)
    D       E       A

 D E  AOhhhhh

         D          ELet that candle burn

A   D E  A  D
