It’s easier not to be wise,       Measure these things by your brains

I sank into Eden with you,      Alone in the church by and by

I’ll read to you love save your eyes,You’ll need them your boat is at sea

Your anchor is up, you’ve been swept away,

                     & the greatest of teachers won’t hesitate

    B

To leave you there by yourself chained to fate

C:   E  B   G                      E  B   G

       I alone love you,        I alone tempt you

       E  B   G                      A

       I alone love you,        Fear is not the end of this

       E  B   G                      E  B   G

       I alone love you,        I alone tempt you

       E  B   G                      A

       I alone love you, 

 G      D       C     Cmaj7,         G           D               C     Cmaj7

It’s easier not to be great,    And measure these things by your eyes

We long to be here by his resolve,   Alone in the church by and by

To cradle the baby in space

   B

And leave you there by yourself chained to fate

[Chorus x1.5]     

Bridge: B

  Oh now we took it back too far, Only love can save us now

  All these riddles that you burn, All come running back to you

  All these rhythms that you hide, Only love can save us now

  All these riddles that you burn, yeah yeah [G] yeah

[Chorus]

 E  B   G                   E  B   G                    E  B   G                E  B   G

 I alone love you,  I alone tempt you,  I alone love you,              (x2)
