Dm                  Bb 
   There was a little place in a pretty row 
Gm                        A 
  Where we mostly did not go 
Dm                           Bb 
  And next to the place in a field of trees 
Gm                         F 
   Were stones stacked on stones for ten centuries 

Vocalizing 
Dm            Bb 
  Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah 
Gm           A 
   Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah 


Dm                          Bb 
  One time in the field in the middle of the night 
Gm                                        A 
  An old God shambled beneath the sodium light 
Dm                                   Bb 
  And the whole town gathered at the fence 
Gm                                F 
  With looks on their faces worse than grief itself 

Vocalizing 
Dm             Bb 
  Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah 
Gm           A 
   Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah 


Dm                             Bb 
  Now then, a girl across the street with long dark hair 
Gm                                   A 
  Knelt among the stones and the mystical flare 
Dm                          Bb 
  And the old God drew her into him like a flame 
Gm                                      A 
  And I’ve never seen you so beautiful as that again 

Chorus 
Dm            Bb 
  Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah 
Gm                            A 
   Touched by the spirit and touched by the flame 

Dm            Bb

Not even by ordinary pain! Not even by ordinary pain!

I never ever really hurt again!

Oh, hurt again! Oh, hurt again!
