Mystery

[D] notes in them: [G] becomes G (9 fr.), [A] becomes [A7Sus4], [Em] becomes [Em7](4), etc.
 Buy the _Swamp_Ophelia_ songbook if you want Emily's chord fingerings.]
[Each chord, or pair of chords joined by hyphens, is one 6/8 measure.]

[Dmaj9]    [G]    [D]      [Dsus4]   [D]       [Dsus9]    [Dmaj9]    [G]    [D]   [Gm]   [D]

(Handed down or made by hand)

[Dmaj9]Each time you'd pull down the [G]driveway
I wasn't sure [D]when I would [Dsus4]see you ag[D]ain
Yours was a [Em7]twisted, blind-sided high[G]way   [A7Sus4]
No matter which [D]road you took [Gm]then   [D]

Oh you [Dmaj9]set up your place in my tho[G]ughts
Moved in and made my [D]thinking crow[Dsus4]ded       [D]
Now we're out in the b[Em7]ack with the barking dogs[D/F#]
My heart the red [G]sun, your heart the moon [A7Sus4]clouded     [A7]

I could go [G]crazy on a night like to[A]night
When summer's begin[D]ning to g[D/C#]ive up her [Gmaj7]fight [B]
And every thoug[G]ht's a possibility[A]
And voices are [D]heard, but [D/C#]nothing is [D7/C]seen
Why do you [G]spend this time with me[A]
May be an [G]equal [A]mystery[D]    [Dsus4]            [D]

So what is love then
Is it dictated or chosen (handed down or made by hand)
Does it sing like the hymns of a thousand years
Or is it just pop emotion (handed down or made by hand)

And if it ever was there, and it left
Does it mean it was never true
And to exist it must elude
Is that why I think these things of you

But I could go crazy on a night like tonight
When summer's beginning to give up her fight
And every thought's a possibility
And voices are heard, but nothing is seen
Why do you spend this time with me
May be an equal mystery

Oh, but you like the [C9]taste of danger
It [C9]shines like sugar o[D]n your l[Dsus4]ips        [D]
And you like to st[C9]and in the line of fi[C9]re
Just to show y[Em7]ou can shoot straight from your [D7/C]hip
There must be a [G]thousand things you would [Gm]die for
I can [D]hardly [D/C#]think of [Gmaj7]two   [B]
But not everything [Em7]is better spoken al[D/F#]oud
Not when I'm t[G]alking to you [A7Sus4]           [A7]

Oh, the [Dmaj9]pirate gets the ship and the girl to[G]night
Breaks a bottle to chr[D]isten her[Dsus4]          [D]
Basking in the [Em7]exploits of her thief[G]      [A7Sus4]
She's a very go[D]od listener[Gm]       [D]

And maybe that's [Dmaj9]all that we need is to [G]meet in the middle
Of impossi[D]bility[Dsus4]         [D]
Standing at o[Em7]pposite poles
Equal [G]partners in a [A]mystery  [D]        [Dsus4]                  [D]
We're standing at o[Em7]pposite poles
Equal [G]partners in a [A]mystery [D]       [Dsus4]                [D]                      [Dsus4]                               [D]                                     [Gm]                                           [D]
