Original song and chords
Gm Fm D7
Gm Gm/F
Immortality what do you
Gm/Eb D
want here in front of my porch
F Eb
you take no heed of me and you
Dm Gm
have my heart completely scorch'd
Gm Gm/F
In this world they have long loved you
Gm Gm/F
many kings and poets who pray
F Eb
and not a sprig of mint did you
Dm Gm
ever give to them away
[Refrain:]
Gm D
You're merciless, like the relentless fist of death
Gm
at times a bless, we have believed in with our breath
D
Each kindred shall, want you their own if they can
Gm
beautiful gal, never won by any man
Gm Fm D7
Gm Gm/F
Immortality what do you
Gm/Eb D
want here in front of my porch
F Eb
what eerie forfeits will you
Dm Gm
ask from life as rewards
Gm Gm/F
Croesuses came thirsty around
Gm/Eb D
modest pilgrims before you
F Eb
and weren't from your garden's fount
Dm Gm
ever offered water to
(refrain)
Gm Fm D7
