Curl up tight into a ball  
Curl my body against the soil  
Staring up here  
At the cathedral wall 
I will sleep tonight  
Be a baby 
Forget it all 
Be a baby 
Watch the quiet stones  
Massive friend  
Cathedral wall 
I will sleep tonight  

Chorus (Play A5 on 1st and 4th beats of every other bar throughout the Chorus) 
====== 
A mother to the living  
A mother to the dead  
Silent as the moonlight  
I come to lay my head  

verse 2 (as verse 1) 
======= 
And I won't know you 
Anymore  

The peckish evening rolls once more  
Into the ravenous night 
Of hunger pains  
That keep our troubled souls awake 
We are forbidden to explain 

Chorus (as before up to "magic stones") 
====== 
A mother to the living 
A mother to the dead  
My ghost will drink the moonlight 

G5 
Magic stones 
F5 
My heart and bones 

And I won't know you 
Anymore

Anymore 

My frenzied and exhausted mind 
Will somehow find a way 
To leave you for a time 
Condemned to lieing 
And lying awake
