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

Oh the tears that you weep,

for the poor tortured souls,

who fall at your feet,

with their love begging bowls,

all the clerks and the tailors,

the sharks and the sailors,

all good at thier trades but,

they'll always be failures.

Love needs it's martyrs,

needs it's 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.

The remainder of the song follows same pattern, including guitar outro.

Instrumental ad lib as follows:

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
