G Bm
Bury me deep in love; bury me deep in love,
Em C
Take me in, under your wing, bury me deep in love.
G Bm
There's a chapel deep in a valley for traveling strangers in distress
Em C
It's nestled among the ghosts of the pines under the shadow of a precipice.
G Bm
When a lonesome climbing figure, slips and looses grip
Em C
Tumbles into a crevice, into his icy mountain crypt.
CHORUS X 1
G Bm
When the rock below is shaking, the heart inside is quaking
Em C
How long this cold dark night is taking, bury me deep in love
CHORUS X 1
And the little congregation gathers, prays for guidance from above
They sing "hear our meditation, lead us not into temptation,
But give us some kind of explanation, bury us deep in love."
G Bm
You may loose me on the east face; you may loose me on the west
Em C
I may be covered over in the night, bury me deep in your love, yes yes
CHORUS X 2
G Bm
Bury me deep in love darling, bury me deep in your love'
Em C
Deeper and deeper, deeper and deeper, deeper and deeper in love.
