[Intro]
D Bm

[Verse 1]
Bm              Bmadd9   D
I have wondered what was done
to you
            G      D
To give you such a taste of
 A6      Bm
 flesh
                  Bmadd9
I guess for years I just
  D
carried on
       G                D
Didn't feel much of a choice
         A6        Bm
to suppress

[Verse 2]
Bm               Bmadd9
I hope your memory is less
   D
 vivid than mine
       G              D
And is free from that awful
        A6
 maple light
Bm                       Bmadd9
I have to say I wish you had just
  D
 done it in the dark
       G
So the pictures didn't
  D        A6
burn so bright

[Chorus]
    Bm   A6        D
But I forgive you now
   G             D
Release you from all the
   A6         G
blame I know how
    Bm      A6        D
And I'll forgive you now
       G          D
As if saying the words will
  A6           G
 help me know how
                     D      Bm
Please help me know how

[Verse 3]
Bm         Bmadd9   D
I'm afraid it will take a time
          G                   D
I make my case to the Shahanshah
                     A6   Bm
as I bring him his cup
                   Bmadd9  D
And I tell him the best I can
 what I need
             G
To build the walls of my
    D           A6   Bm
Jerusalem back up

[Verse 4]
Bm                        Bmadd9
And I have reckoned with what you
       D
 have taken from me
      G            D          A6
And I killed that liar in my head
Bm             Bmadd9     D
I buried him beneath the maple tree
 G                 D
There's no joy in dancing
            A6
with the dead

[Chorus]
    Bm   A6        D
But I forgive you now
   G             D
Release you from all the
   A6         G
 blame I know how
    Bm      A6        D
And I'll forgive you now
       G          D
As if saying the words will
   A6           G
 help me know how

[Outro]
 A    G    D
How, how
