I Was Brought to My Senses Sting
Prologue part 1:
A[Am7]lone with my thoughts this [Dsus2]evening
I [Am7]walked on the banks of [Dsus2]Tyne
I [Am7]wondered how I could [Dsus2]win you
Cadd9* G Dsus2
Or if I could make you mine
Cadd9* G Dsus2
Or if I could make you mine
Prologue part 2:
The [Am7]wind it was so ins[Dsus2]istent
With [Am7]tales of a story s[Dsus2]outh
But w[Am7]hen I spied two birds in a [Dsus2]sycamore tree
Cadd9* G Dsus2
There came a dryness in my mouth
Cadd9* G Dsus2
Came a dryness in my mouth
Prologue part 3:
For [Am7]then without rhyme or [Dsus2]reason
The [Am7]two birds did rise up to [Dsus2]fly
And [Am7]where the two birds were [Dsus2]flying
Cadd9* G Dsus2
I swear I saw you and I
Cadd9* G Dsus2
I swear I saw you and I

[G] [G/B] [Cadd9] [Dsus4] [D] [Em7] [Bm7] [Cadd9] [Dsus4] [D]
[Verse 1]
[G] I walked out this [G/B]morning
It was like a [Cadd9]veil had been removed
From be[Dsus4]fore my [D]eyes
[Em7]For the first time I saw
The [Bm7]work of Heaven
In the [Cadd9]line where the hills had been
Married to the [Dsus4]sky[D]
[Verse 2]
[G] And all arou[G/B]nd me? every [Cadd9]blade of singing gr[Dsus4]ass[D]
Was [B7+/G#]calling out your n[Em7]ame and
That our [Cadd9]love would always las[Dsus4]t[D]
[G] And inside every [G/B]turning leaf
Is the [Cadd9]pattern of an older t[Dsus4]ree[D]
The [Em7]shape of our futu[Bm7]re
The [Cadd9]shape of all our history[Dsus4] [D]
[Verse 3]
[G] And out of the con[G/B]fusion
Where the [Cadd9]river meets the s[Dsus4]ea[D]
Came [B7+/G#]things I'd never s[Em7]een
[Cadd9]Things I'd never s[Dsus4]een [D]
[Refrain]
I was b[Em7]rought [Dm7]? to my [Cmaj7]senses, [B7+]
I was b[Em7]lind ? bu[Dm7]t now that [Cmaj7]I can s[B7+]ee
Every s[Em7]ign- [Dm7] post in [Am7-5]na- t[B7+]ure, said [C9]you [A9]be-
[Verse 4]
[G]long to me, I [G/B]know it's true
[Cadd9]It's written in a s[Dsus4]ky as bl[D]ue
As [Em]blue as your eyes[Bm7]
[Cadd9] As blue as your ey[Dsus4]es[D]
[G] If nature's red in tooth and [G/B]claw
Like [Cadd9]winter's freeze and summer's t[Dsus4]haw[D]
[B7+/G#] The wounds she gave me[Em7]
Were the w[Cadd9]ounds that would heal me[Dsus4] [D]
[Verse 5]
And [G]we'd be like the [G/B]moon and sun
And [Cadd9]when our courtly da[Dsus4]nce had [D]run
Its [Em]course across the s[Bm7]ky
Then to-[Cadd9]gether we would li[Dsus4]e[D]
[G] And out of the con[G/B]fusion
Where the [Cadd9]river meets the se[Dsus4]a[D]
Something [B7+/G#]new would arrive[Em7]
Something [Cadd9]better would arrive[Dsus4] [D]
[Refrain]
I was b[Em7]rought [Dm7]? to my [Cmaj7]senses, [B7+]
I was [Em7]blind ? [Dm7]but now that [Cmaj7]I can [B7+]see
Every [Em7]sign- [Dm7]post in [F#7+9]na- [B7+]ture, said [C9]you [A9]be- [F#9]long [F9]to [Em]me
Repeat to the end . . .
