A           A7  
Love rescue me
     D                  A    
Come forth and speak to me 
         A                   E      
Raise me up and don’t let me fall 
   A         A7      
No man is my enemy 
       D              A    
My own hands imprison me 
A    E      A    
Love rescue me 

Many strangers have I met 
On the road to my regret 
Many lost who seek to find themselves in me 
They ask me to reveal 
The very thoughts they would conceal 
Love rescue me 
  
        D                      A                     
And the sun in the sky makes a shadow of you and I 
                                       E  A/E E7
Stretching out as the sun sinks in the sea 
    A              A7          D            A       
I’m here without a name in the palace of my shame 
          E      A    
Said love rescue me 
  
In the cold mirror of a glass 
I see my reflection pass 
I see the dark shades of what I used to be 
I see the purple of her eyes 
The scarlet of my lies 
Love rescue me 
 
And the sun in the sky makes a shadow of you and I 
Stretching out as the sun sinks in the sea 
I’m hanging by my thumbs 
I’m ready for whatever comes 
Love rescue me 
 
A    E                              A                                 
Yeah though I walk through the valley of shadow               
A   E                  A      
Yet I will fear no evil 
       A                  A7      
I have cursed thy rod and staff 
        D              A    
They no longer comfort me 
     E      A    
Love rescue me 
     E      A    
Love rescue me 
 
Sha la la sha la la 
Sha la la sha la la 
 
I’ve conquered my past 
The future is here at last 
I stand at the entrance 
To a new world I can see 
The ruins to the right of me 
Will soon have lost sight of me 
Love rescue me
