Wretch
By Zach Payne
E C#m
If you could take a wretch
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 Bsus E
Who is this come rising from the wilderness
At his lover's side with beauty like
No eye has seen
Who is this?
Who is this?
Bsus Asus
Put a skirt around my hips
Who is this?
Cover all my nakedness with a white dress.
And crown my heart with love
Who is this?
