Key: C
Introduction:
Dm F
He buried her heart still
Am G
He buried her on her own
Dm F
By the cool ferns
Am G
In the rained on river bed
Dm F
He took her in his arms
Am G
He carried her ghost
Dm F
Through grey stone fields
Am G
He could feel her float
C F
She said, "I would die for you
C F
"I would die for you"
Am
And it all came true
G
It all came true
Dm F
A love so dark
Am G
Against that moon
Dm F
With a silken cord
Am G
She spoke too soon
C F
She said, "I would die for you
C F
I would die for you"
Dm F
When he first laid eyes
Am G
It was like a curse
Dm F
He felt his heart rise
Am G
And gravity in reverse
Dm F
Her eyes full of hope
Am G
Her voice full of mourning
Dm F
And her lips as red
Am G
As a shepherds warning
C F
She said, "I would die for you
C F
"I would die for you"
Am
And it all came true
G
It all came true
Dm
He lay her down
Am G
In the gentle earth
Dm F
And kissed her eyes closed
Am G
Like it didn't hurt
Dm F Am G
Whisper, "I would die for you
Dm F Am G
"I would die for you"
C F
"I would die for you"
C F
"I would die for you"
Dm F Am G
"I would die for you"
And it all came true
