lyrics

Forgiveness Jan Hauenstein

(Am7) (Cj7) (Bbj7/F) (Dj7) (Am7) (B7) (Cj7) (Fj7)
She comes (Am7)home from that (Cj7)place
To her (Bbj7/F)dingy two-roomed (Dj7)flat,
And she (Am7)says to her(B7)self,
(Cj7) "Well, that was (Fj7)that."

But her (Am7)bones, they tear at her (B7)flesh,
And her (Am7)skin does (B7)crawl,
And her (Am7)head is on (B7)fire,
And in (Fj7)place of her heart
There´s an (Bbj7/F)empty hole,
An (Ej7)empty hole. (Dj7) (Fj7)

And on (Am7)Sunday con(Cj7)fession,
And the (Bbj7/F)priest, he will (Dj7)say,
(Am7)"You have given your immortal soul away."(B7) (Cj7) (Fj7)

And his (Am7)manner is (Cj7)mild
And his (Bbj7/F)conscience is (Dj7)clear
While he (Am7)puts in her (B7)mind
A (Cj7)cold deadly (Fj7)fear.

And her (Am7)bones, they tear at her (B7)flesh,
And her (Am7)skin does (B7)crawl,
And her (Am7)mind is a (B7)stone,
And the (Fj7)hole in her womb
Is the (Bbj7/F)hole in her soul,
(Ej7)Hole in her soul. (Dj7) (Fj7)
(Am7) (Cj7) (Bbj7/F) (Dj7) (Am7) (B7) (Cj7) (Fj7)

Why no free uploads? I cover songs. Register them with the German music rights agency GEMA. They hopefully reimburse the artists. The tax authorities demand that I make (not lose) a little money each year... ... more
