Verse: Penelope
Gmaj7 Gbm7
Is it you? Have my prayers been answered?
Em7
Is it really you standing there?
A
Or am I dreaming once more?
Gmaj7
You look different
Gbm7
Your eyes look tired
G
Your frame is lighter
A
You smile torn, Is it really you, my love?
Odysseus
Bm A Gmaj7
I am not the man you fell in love with
Bm A G
I am not the man you once adored
Bm A G
I am not your kind and gentle husband
Em A
And I am not the love you knew before
Chorus:
G A Bm D
Would you fall in love with me again
G A Bm
If you knew all I've done?
D Em7
The things I cannot change
A Bm
Would you love me all the same?
Gmaj7 G A Bm
I know that you've been waiting, Waiting, for love
Interlude: A Gmaj7 Bm
Penelope
A Gmaj7
What kinds of things did you do?
Verse: Odysseus
Bm A Gmaj7
Left a trail of red on every island
Bm A Gmaj7
As I traded friends like objects I could use
Bm A Gmaj7
Hurt more lives than I can count on my hands
Em A
But all of that was to bring me back to you, So tell me
Chorus:
G A Bm D
Would you fall in love with me again
G A Bm
If you knew all I've done?
D Em
The things I can't undo
A Bm
I am not the man you knew
Gbm Em A
I know that you've been waiting, waiting
Verse: Penelope
Gmaj7 Gbm
If that's true, could you do me a favor?
Em A
Just a moment of labor, that would bring me some peace
Gmaj7
See that wedding bed?
D
Could you carry it over?
Em
Lift it high on your shoulders
Gb
And take it far away from here?
Odysseus
Gb
How could you say this?
Bm A
I had built that wedding bed with my blood and sweat
D A G
Carved it into the olive tree where we first met
Bm A
The symbol of our love everlasting
Em
Do you realize what you have asked me?
Gb
The only way to move it
G
is to cut it from its roots
Penelope
A
Only my husband knew that, So I guess that makes him you!
Odysseus

Penelope
Penelope
Bm A G
I will fall in love with you
Bm
Over and over again
A
I don’t care how, where, or when
G
No matter how long it’s been
A
You’re mine
Bm A G
Don’t tell me you’re not the same person
Gb
You’re always my husband
Em Gbm
And I’ve been waiting, waiting
Odysseus
