[Verse]

N.C.      Bm            
This infirmity of seeing 
        D
far too much
                           A
Has caused in me such an affinity
                   E
I fear that I have crossed 

a line of trust
           Bm
And who am I that 

you should trust me
       D
In any way you do not know me
       A
Such inordinance of care
              E
Bears witness to the ways 

you have disarmed me
 
 
[Verse]

          Bm
It would appear you are enveloped
     D
By a coterie of women
A
Strong and protective
       E
Noble, caring and committed
            Bm
It makes me feel that 

I can somehow
      D
Maybe trust you to the fates
                 A
And they will be there to keep 

you fed and rested
E
Stable, loved and safe
 
 
[Chorus]

             D        
And please believe me 
            A
when I tell you
       G                 
This I want for you and 
        D    A
nothing more
          D              
I would release my weary 
                    F#m  A
soul out to protect you
         G                D    A
Blanket upon you, however worn
D                      
I will be your brother 
                F#m
I will cover you
                    F
And keep you out of sight
            A
Of grasping hands
            E
Of grasping hands
           D
Including mine
           A
Including mine
 
 
[Verse]

             Bm
And I would rather get a sense
         D
Of how distinctly complicated you are
A                            
As I gather bits of light and 
          E
prose and shadow from afar
          Bm
And I see so much of myself in you
     D                       
That now I cannot help but to 
      A
assimilate impressions
     E
As I tend this vivid phantom
 
 
[Chorus]

                   D 
And please believe me 
            A
when I tell you
       G                
This I want for you and 
        D     A
nothing more
                D        
I would release my weary 
                    F#m
soul out to protect you
         G                D    A
Blanket upon you, however worn
D                     
I will be your brother 
       F#m
I will cover you
                    F
And keep you out of sight
            A
Of grasping hands
            E
Of grasping hands
           D
Including mine
          A
Including mine
 
 
[Verse]

Bm
And as I close you in between the pages
D
Of this most peculiar passage
A
Know that all of 

my age and wisdom
E
Held the challenge 

of this reverie
Bm
And, oh, how it has so
  D
Bewilderingly changed me
       A
And it will remain forever
E
Such a poignant part of me
 
 
[Chorus]

                   D      
And please believe me when 
       A
I tell you
       G                
This I want for you and 
        D    A
nothing more
                D         
I would release my weary 
                    F#m  A
soul out to protect you
         G                D    A
Blanket upon you, however worn
D                     
I will be your brother  
       F#m
I will cover you
                    F
And keep you out of sight
            A
Of grasping hands
            E
Of grasping hands
          D
Including mine
          A
Including mine
