[Verse]
Em
Jaundiced yellow light is flashing
F# B
Hanging above Church and Main
Em
On the wind her perfume lingers
D B
Likewise her Christian name
Em
Fields of night hang close above her
F# B
The family lie in a dreamless sleep
Em
Frost grows on the windowpanes
D B
And the wind spins circles in the empty street
[Chorus]
C#m E
Shining white steeples
B A G#
Rise from the ground
C#m E
Ring all the bells you may
B A G#
And brace for the kiss of Mercy Brown
[Verse 2]
Em
By the paper mill she wanders
F# B
Singing melodies to the clouds
Em
A fox calls but none does answer
D A
Cross the green of hallowed ground
Em
Quietly beyond the threshold
F# B
A pale hand on the bannister
Em
Looks upon the sleepers there
D A
And weeps at the memory of the way things were
[Chorus 2]
C#m E
Shining white steeples
B A G#
Alarm the town
C#m E
Ring all the bells you can
B A G#
And brace for the kiss of Mercy Brown
[Interlude]

Em F# B Em D B
[Verse 3]
Em
Two lovers in the moonlight
F# B
Playing at hare and hounds
Em
Leaves fall upon the hillside
D B
Ruddy as the lips of young Miss Brown
[Chorus 3]
C#m E
Shining white steeples
B A G#
Alarm the town
C#m E
Ring all the bells you may
B A G#
And brace for the kiss of Mercy Brown
C#m E
Shining white steeples
B A G#
Dawn in the dark
C#m E
Be still your beating
B A G#
Your beating heart
C#m
Be still your beating heart
