Take This Longing (Cohen Leonard)

		
Tuning: C F A# D# G C (standard, two full steps down)  
 
Intro: E  
 
D A  
Many men have loved the bells  
D A  
You fastened to the rein  
F#m Bm  
And everyone who wanted you  
F#m E F#m E  
They found what they will always want again  
G#m C#m  
Your beauty lost to you yourself  
 G#m C#m  
Just as it was lost to them  
 
 A E  
Oh take this longing from my tongue  
 A E  
Whatever useless things these hands have done  
 A E  
Let me see your beauty broken down  
G#m A E  
Like you would do for one you love  
 
Your body like a searchlight  
My poverty revealed  
I would like to try your charity  
Until you cry, "Now you must try my greed."  
And everything depends upon  
How near you sleep to me  
 
Just take this longing from my tongue  
All the lonely things my hands have done  
Let me see your beauty broken down  
Like you would do for one you love  
 
Hungry as an archway  
Through which the troops have passed  
I stand in ruins behind you  
With your winter clothes, your broken sandal straps  
I love to see you naked over there  
Especially from the back  
 
Oh take this longing from my tongue  
All the useless things my hands have done  
Untie for me your hired blue gown  
Like you would do for one that you love  
 
You're faithful to the better man  
I'm afraid that he left  
So let me judge your love affair  
In this very room where I have sentenced mine to death  
I'll even wear these old laurel leaves  
That he's shaken from his head  
 
Just take this longing from my tongue  
All the useless things my hands have done  
Let me see your beauty broken down  
Like you would do for one you love  
 A E  
Like you would do for one you love
