Hosea 1-3 
 
 F#5 
{ / / / / }{ / / / / } 
F#5                       G#5 
Don't know what He sees in me, he is spirit, he is free 
  F#5         B5         G#5             C#5 
And I, the wife of adultery, Gomer is my name 
F#5                    G#5 
Simply more than I can see how he keeps on forgiving me 
F#5          B5           G#5  C#5           F#5 
   How he keeps his sanity, Hosea, you're a fool 
 
Chorus: 
 F#5                      G#5 
A fool to love someone like me, a fool to suffer silently 
   F#5                B5             G#5    C#5    F#5 
But sometimes through your eyes I see I'd rather be a fool 
 
The fondness of a father, the passion of a child 

The tenderness of a loving friend, an understanding smile 

All of this and so much more you've lavished on a faithless whore 

I've never known love like this before, Hosea you're a fool 
 
Chorus 
     D#5      /C#5      B5           /A#5 
This God of yours would not have told 
   G#5                    C#5 
To lift a love that you couldn't hold 
         D#5              /C#5 B5           /A#5 
And though time and time again I flee 
   G#5                     C#5          C#5 
I'm always glad to see you coming after me 
 

 F#5                   G#5 
{ / / / / }{ / / / / }{ / / / / }{ / / / / } 
F#5   B5             G#5         C#5 
{ / / / / }{ / / / / }{ / / / / }{ / / / / } 
 
Simply more than I can see, how he keeps on forgiving me 

The wife of adultery, and Gomer is my name
