[Verse 1]
G           G#dim               Am     G#m Am
Do you remember all of those pledges
          G             G#dim        Am     G#m Am
That we pledged in the passionate night
            C                               G    F# G
Ah they're soiled now, they're torn at the edges
      Cm                      G#7  A#7 G#7 G7
Like moths on a stale yellow light
G           G#dim         Am     G#m Am
No penance serves to renew them
    G           G#dim         Am     G#m Am
No massive transfusions of trust
         C                  G      F# G
Why not even revenge can undo them
    Cm                         G
So twisted these vows and so crushed

[Chorus]
G                        Bb
And you say you've been humbled in love
     F
Cut down in your love
            Bb                     F
Forced to kneel in the mud next to me
        Bb              F
Ah but why so bitterly turn from the one
      Am        Fmaj7          E
Who kneels there as deeply as thee

[Verse 2]
G              G#dim          Am     G#m Am
Children have taken these pledges
           G           G#dim         Am     G#m Am
They have ferried them out of the past
      C                           G    F# G
Oh beyond all the graves and the hedges
      Cm                      G#7  A#7 G#7 G7
Where love must go hiding at last
     G               G#dim       Am     G#m Am
And here where there is no description
    G           G#dim       Am     G#m Am
Oh here in the moment at hand
    C                      G    F# G
No sinner need rise up forgiven
    Cm                       G
No victim need limp to the stand

[Chorus]
G                        Bb
And you say you've been humbled in love
     F
Cut down in your love
            Bb                     F
Forced to kneel in the mud next to me
        Bb              F
Ah but why so bitterly turn from the one
      Am        Fmaj7             E
Who kneels there as deeply as thee

[Verse 3]
     G              G#dim           Am     G#m Am
And look dear heart, look at the virgin
              G           G#dim       Am     G#m Am
Look how she welcomes him into her gown
          C                            G    F# G
Yes, and mark how the stranger's cold armour
    Cm                         G#7  A#7 G#7 G7
Dissolves like a star falling down
G              G#dim           Am     G#m Am
Why trade this vision for desire
G            G#dim        Am     G#m Am
When you may have them both
          C                    G    F# G
You will never see a man this naked
       Cm                        G
I will never hold a woman this close

[Chorus]
G                        Bb
And you say you've been humbled in love
     F
Cut down in your love
            Bb                     F
Forced to kneel in the mud next to me
        Bb              F
Ah but why so bitterly turn from the one
      Am           Fmaj7          E
Who kneels there as deeply as thee
