"Lily"
By Kate Bush
From 1993's "The Red Shoes"

(Dialogue)
"Oh thou, who givest sustenance to the universe
From whom all things proceed
To whom all things return
Unveil to us the face of the true spiritual sun
Hidden by a disc of golden light
That we may know the truth
And do our whole duty
As we journey to thy sacred feet"

Gm (355333@1)   Fadd9 (135211@1)   Ebadd9/G
