G7/C     C     Cmaj7/B


 Am                  C/G
Love, risin from the mists,
 Fmaj7               F6   Fmaj7
Promise me this and only this,
  F           C
Holy breath touchin' me
       Gsus4  G
Like a wind song,
 G7/C  G7             C      Cmaj7/B
Sweet communion of a kiss

 Am                  C/G
Sun, siftin' thru the grey
 Fmaj7              F6
Enter in, reach me with a ray
  F           C
Silently swoopin' down
       Gsus4  G
Just to show me
 G7/C  G7             C
How to give my heart away


 Ab
Once a crystal choir
                       Eb
Appeared while I was sleepin'

And called my name
               Ab
And when they came do__wn
      AbMaj7#11
nearer
          C          F
Sayin', "Dyin' is done",
         C            D/C
Then a new song was sung
        C
Until somewhe__re
      Gsus  G       C
We breathed    as one
               F           G
(and still I hear their whisper)


 Am                    C/G
Stars, burstin' in the sky
 Fmaj7            F6      Fmaj7
Hear the sad nova's dyin' cry,
  F         C
Shimmerin' memory
        Gsus4 G
Come and hold me
 G7/C  G7               C      Cmaj7/B
While y'show me how to fly

 Am                  C/G
Sun, siftin' thru the grey
 Fmaj7              F6
Enter in, reach me with a ray
  F           C
Silently swoopin' down
       Gsus4  G
Just to show me
 G7/C  G7             C
How to give my heart away


 Ab
Lately sparklin' hosts
                       Eb
Come fill my dreams descendin'

On firey beams
               Ab            AbMaj7#11
I've seen 'em come clea__r down
          C            F
Where our poor bodies lay,
           C          D/C
Soothe us gently and say,
        C               Gsus  G    C
"Gunna wipe a__ll your tears     away"
               F           G
(and still I hear their whisper)


 Am                  C/G
Love, risin from the mists,
 Fmaj7               F6   Fmaj7
Promise me this and only this,
  F           C
Holy breath touchin' me
       Gsus4  G
Like a wind song,
 G7/C  G7             C
Sweet communion of a kiss

Thanks to Rich Smorgasbord and Ludwig-van for figuring out the chords.
I just did the easier (but still tedious) part of placing the chords.
