Bmno5 A7no3 G
[Verse 1]
G
KJ's in the market buying mumus, for the girls back home
Am7
The boys yell, "Brambo",
C Dadd4
And say, "As-salaam alaikum"
G
Up on the roof drinking dogwoods, where the tourists flock
Am7
They’re popping their collars
C Dadd4
And talk of their travels over the soft rock
[Chorus 1]
G
Maybe in another life
Maybe in another life
Am7
I was your lover
C Dadd4
Maybe in another life
[Verse 2]
G
Scaffolding invades the cathedral, shackles in a hole in the yard
Am7
The post at the altar
C Dadd4
Cross from the T where they buried his heart
G
Lost in the maze of doorways, and call a rag
Am7
The flag of the slave trade
C Dadd4
This is behind the glass
[Chorus 2]
G Bmno5 A7no3
Maybe in another life
G
Maybe in another life
Am7
We can start over
C Dadd4
Maybe we'll get it right
G Bmno5 A7no3
Maybe in another life
G
Maybe in another life
Am7
We’ll know forgiveness
C Dadd4
Maybe in another life

G Am7 C Dadd4
[Bridge]
G
Down along a lonely grove, she goes wading
Am7
Out there as the tide is low, I’m contemplating
C Dadd4
This gift of failure and the truth
G
Of the feeling in my bones
[Verse 3]
G
Back in the market buying mumus, we'll be leaving soon
Am7
The smell of cinnamon
C Dadd4
Follows us back into our room
G
Dust falls over the attic, saltwater in her hair
Am7
My love is shimmering
C Dadd4
Pretty as a call to prayer
[Chorus 3 ]
G Bmno5 A7no3
Maybe in another life
G
Maybe in another life
Am7
I was your lover
C Dadd4
Maybe I was your wife
G
Maybe in another life
G
Maybe in another life
Am7
We can start over
C Dadd4
Maybe in another life
