F C C7M
verse 1
G C Em
Wrapped in the wings of a sparrow
F C C7M
Beak is as sharp as an arrow
G C Em
Sings in a whispering whistle
F C C7M
Sleeps in the ivy and thistle
G C Em
Owls out swooping and howling
F C C7M
Deep in the midnight a-prowling
G C Em
Mama, the scream of the eagle
F C C7M
Threading my heart through the needle
G CEm
Threading the blood through the apple
F C C7M
Sucking the juice from the apple
G CEm
Eating the seeds of the apple
F C C7M
Bearing the tree of the apple
G C Em
Trapped in the weeds like a scarecrow
F C C7M
Stuck to the wind like Velcro
G C Em
Distantly hearing the bell toll
F C C7M
Warbling chime through the meadow

F C C7M
Eve sucked the juice from the apple
G C Em
Nakedly running, I saw her
F C C7M
Boy chasing after to stall her
G C Em
I wish I'd have spoken to call her
F C C7M
Before she found fabric to shawl her
G CEm
Breasts bound and burdened with fiber
F C C7M
Adam came trembling beside her
C7M
And he said, and he said
G C Em
That she has the poison inside her
F C C7M
She talks to snakes and they guide her

She has the poison inside her

She talks to snakes and they guide her

She has the poison inside her

She talks to snakes and they guide her
