[B] [F#]
He's a child to a boy, [Em] from a boy to a [F#] man.
Pride growing [B] strong, though reaching [F#] his [E] victories.
[F#] He speaks no lies, he fights his [E] cause.
[F#] He judges not [B] the scavengers that persecute [C#m]
[F#] humanity.
He makes us [E] call, [F#] and the sickness [C#m] falls.
Lights [E] of life [F#] in doubt, feel like a [B] villain comes to view.
But with one
[E] soldier [F#] in your arms,
[E] Mounting and enduring [F#] till the pain is gone.
[E] Then he looked deep through his [F#] lover's eyes,
And he cried, [B] in the name of love,
[E] Spill [B] my [F#] bleeding heart.
[B] Oh, the love of [E] God, [B] spill my bleeding [F#] heart.
So, his chin he held high,
And the courage in his voice was like [B] the burning of the sun.
But like the [E] breath of an angel, [F#] how could this be?
[B] I [F#] have to scream [B] while this innocent young boy,
[E] Must suffer so helplessly [F#] by whoever,
Has challenged God in the ways of the [B] world.
Maybe [F#] by mystery I have trampled down all my hands and [B] knees.
As words fill the air, as he looks into his death-drawn [E] eyes,
Like a soldier [F#] in your arms.
[E] I will be brave so [F#] you can be strong.
[E] Then he looked deep through his [F#] lover's eyes,
And he cried, [B] in the name of love,
Spill my [F#] bleeding heart.
[B] Spill my bleeding [F#] heart.

Then his lover, he comes, [E] brave as a hero,
[F#] And a fond friend [B] for him.
[E] And my own words, [F#] as he reached for his heart,
[B] In the name of love, spill my bleeding [F#] heart.
Oh,
[B] the love of God, spill my bleeding [F#] heart.
In [G#m] the name of [E] love, spill [B] my bleeding [F#] heart.
[B] [C#m] [B] Spill my [F#] bleeding heart.
