Strum
D-DU-UDU
When  the time comes for marriages  to end
When  all the black gowns are called and sent
to  darken doors and pay  them  penance
for  wishing death before their contract's ended
When  all the black gowns are  hiring
Art  does the suffering
They  don't see the beauty in the power  wires
or  of an honest man in poor  attire
But  I've heard of hope in a faceless  man
 I know  I'll never meet
 I've heard of life  in those who love  so very
effortlessly
who  live forever in a state  of vulnerability
to  leave behind for those they've  loved
alot  of time to weep
 Repeat First Part Of Chorus
when  the time comes for marriages  to end
will  the world wait while we  address
with  poignancy enough to down  the city of  hounds
speaking  humanly enough to free  us from ourselves
abandonment makes  for something heartfelt
and  finds your ear  like chimes and church  bells
 something special  will recede as something boring  swells
and  finds your ear  like chimes and church  bells
But  I've heard of hope in a faceless  man
 I know  I'll never meet
 I've heard of life  in those who love  so very
effortlessly
who  live forever in a state  of vulnerability
to  leave behind for those they've  loved
alot  of time to weep
