If you could tak[E]e a w[C#m]retch
And make it beautiful
Could you take a wretch like me
If you could take a whore and make her
White as snow
Could you take a whore like me?
[Bsus]Write your name on my heart
[Asus]So I cannot forget
If you could take the dead and make
Her dance again and make her
Sing as in the days of her youth
Like it was before there's no
Sickness and war
We were rich and wild and new
Give me back my innocence
Just like before
[Asus]Who i[Bsus]s this [E]come rising from the wilderness
At his lover's side with beauty like
No eye has seen
Who is this?
Who is this?
[Bsus]Put a skirt around my hips[Asus]
Who is this?
Cover all my nakedness with a white dress.
And crown my heart with love
Who is this?
And make it beautiful
Could you take a wretch like me
If you could take a whore and make her
White as snow
Could you take a whore like me?
[Bsus]Write your name on my heart
[Asus]So I cannot forget
If you could take the dead and make
Her dance again and make her
Sing as in the days of her youth
Like it was before there's no
Sickness and war
We were rich and wild and new
Give me back my innocence
Just like before
[Asus]Who i[Bsus]s this [E]come rising from the wilderness

Cover all my nakedness with a white dress.
And crown my heart with love
Who is this?
