The Bachelor And The Bride

Em                 A
There's a wrinkle,   in the water
D                 Cmaj7
Where we laid our,     first 
daughter
Em                         
And I think the wind blows so 
A          Cmaj7       B7
sweetly there, over there

And the windows, and the cinders
And the willows, in the timbers
The infernal rattling of the rain, 
still remains

[Chorus]
    Em          B               
But I, said the bachelor to the 
Em
bride
       B           C
Am not waiting for tonight,
    G         A
No, I, I will box your ears
Continúa después del anuncio
    B7                      Em
And leave you here stripped bare

[Pre-Chorus]
Em  A  D  Cmaj7
Stripped bare...

Hear the corncrakes, and the 
deerhooves
And the sleet rain on the slate roof
A medallion locked inside her hands,
 in her hands

And his fingers, are they telling
Of the barren of her belly
Do his calluses cure her furrowed 
brow, even now

But I, said the bachelor to the 
bride
Am not waiting for tonight,
No, I will box your ears
And leave you here stripped bare,

[Pre-Chorus]
Em  A  D  Cmaj7  Em  A  D  
Stripped bare, stripped bare, 
Cmaj7
stripped bare

[Chorus]
But I, said the bachelor to the 
bride
Am not waiting for tonight,
No, I will box your ears
    C
And take your tears
    A                    C   
And leave you, leave you here, 
           Em    A   D   Cmaj7
stripped bare
