Bauhaus - The Passion Of Lovers Chords

Break: (riff1)  Em  F      Em   F      Em   G

Verse 1:
        Em                                  G
She had nut painted arms, that were hers to keep
           Em                       G
And in her fear, she sought cracked pleasures
    Em                                                  G
The passion of lovers is for death said she, licked her lips
              Em        G
and turned to feather

Break: Em   G     Em  G

Verse 2:
Em                                    G 
And as I watched from underneath, I became aware,
                  Em        G
of all that she'd keep
Em                                                  G
Those little foxes so safe and sound, they were not dead
               Em         G
they'd gone to ground

C              B             Em          D              C      
The passion of lovers is for death, said she-ee-ee-hee  hee
               B             Em       Em
The passion of lovers is for death


Break: (riff1)    Em         F     Em     F      Em         G
                  Aaaaaaahh  ahhh  ahhh   haa     
        
Verse 3:
    Em                                 G
She breaks her heart just a little too much,
        Em                            G
and her jokes, attract the lucky bad type
             Em                        G
And when she dips and wails, slips her banshee smile
             Em                                   G
She gets the bigger of the better to the letter


Chorus:    x4 times
