E|--------------| 

 INTRO uses verse chords (see formations at end of document)


 Love rescue me
 A           A7

 Come forth and speak to me
      D                  A

 Raise me up and don't let me fall
          A                   E

 No man is my enemy
    A            A7

 My own hands imprison me
        D              A

 Love rescue me
 A    E      A


 (Same chord arrangement for other verses: )
 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

 And the sun in the sky makes a shadow of you and I
         D                      A

 Stretching out as the sun sinks in the sea
                                        E    A/E  E7

 I'm here without a name in the palace of my shame

     A              A7          D            A

 Said love rescue me
           E      A

 (Same chords as first 2 verses: )
 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

 Yeah though I walk through the valley of shadow
 E                              A

 Yet I will fear no evil
 E                A

 I have cursed thy rod and staff
        A                  A7

 They no longer comfort me
         D              A

 Love rescue me
      E      A

 Love rescue me
      E      A

 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
