Em  
Em  D/F#  G

A   G    
D/F#   Em


Em         D/F#  G
What is it in  nature
     G         A  Bm
Which lends its hand
       Bm  A                 G              D/F# 
To the tongues of young wondering lovers in flight


Em          D/F#   G
That by the silent boot
     G     A  Bm
Of a dying word
Bm      A              G             D/F#
A scythe was taught to moan and to write



Em         D/F#    G
What is it that is left
        G        A   Bm
For the blushing cheek 
   Bm        A       G              D/F#
To blink the lips of a blooming rose


Em            D/F#    G
Where lover's eyes as black
   G      A   Bm
As Summer crows
Bm    A              G
Picked the blackened rose that they seek


D                 Csus4          Em        G
What has not been taken by a lovers' greed?
D                 Csus4          Em        G
What has not been taken by a lovers' greed?


[Riff 1]


Em   D/F#  G
What then  from 
        G        A  Bm
All the vine and seed
  A             G                      D/F#
On the fragrant air of Spring they feed 


Em           D/F#   G
They come in swarms of two
     G      A  Bm
Like me and you
Bm        A      G
Fattened by the love that they need


D                 Csus4          Em        G
What has not been taken by a lovers' greed?
D                 Csus4          Em        G
What has not been taken by a lovers' greed?


D              A
On and on they come
               C              G
Forever saying I will die without you
D                     A
In the chasm of these eyes
             C            Bm  A           G             A
Nothing satisfies staring into the starry-eyed infinite


A/G                 A
Can't get enough of it
A/G             A
Can't get enough
A/G                 A
Can't get enough of it
A/G            
Can't get enough

Em   D/F#  G
What is it then
   G          A   Bm
My pen should stall
     Bm      A        G           D/F#
When by your wondrous eyes I shake

Em       D/F#  G        G  A    D   
When we, this  world is ours to take


D                 Csus4          Em        G
What has not been taken by a lovers' greed?

What has not been taken by a lovers' greed?
