The song chords include some really awkward finger gymnastics thanks to the root notes, are not too hard once you learn them. A lot of these chords you may want to experiment with, maybe they sound better leaving some of the high string notes and just concentrating on the root notes to change the feel the chord. Some of these very jazz-style chords seem to be transcribed directly from to guitar, making some of the hand shapes very difficult indeed, but they are 100% if you want it to sound just like the song. (low bass "heartbeat" rhythm at very start is a very low Bb) start of song alternates between these two chords Dm7 Bbmaj7
Bbmaj7Oh the tears that you weep, Bbm(maj7) for the poor tortured souls, who Dmfall at your feet, Bbm6/Db with their love begging bowls,
all the Dmclerks and the tailors, the C/Gsharks and the sailors, all Bbgood at thier trades but, they'Gm7ll always be failures.
Bbm(maj7) Love needs it's martyrs, G7/F needs it's sacrifices, Bbm6/F they live for your beauty
and Fm6pay for their vices. Bbm(maj7) Love will be the death of, G7/F my lonely soul brothers, Bbm6/F but their spirit shall live on in the Fm6hearts of all lovers.
The remainder of the song follows same pattern, including guitar outro. Instrumental ad lib as follows: Bbm(maj7) G7/F Bbm6/F Fm6 (repeat section 4 times for ad lib outro as follows: Bbm(maj7) G7/F Bbm6/F Fm6 other lyrics: Alms for the poor For the wretched desciples And the love that they swore With their hearts on the bible Beseeching the honor To sit at your table And feast on your holiness As long as they're able Love needs its martyrs Needs its sacrifices They live for your beauty And pay for their vices Love will be the death of My lonely soul brothers But their spirit shall live on in The hearts of all lovers Your holding court With your lips and your smile Your body's a halo Their minds are on trial Sure as adam is eve Sure as jonah turned whaler They're crooked love thieves And you are their jailor Love needs its martyrs Needs its sacrifices They live for your beauty And pay for their vices Love will be the death of My lonely soul brothers But their spirit shall live on in The hearts of all others Love will be the death of My lonely soul brothers But their spirit shall live on in The hearts of all others
