Dm C Gm
From the dusty mesa the looming shadow grows
Dm C Gm
Hidden in the poison creosote
Dm C Gm
In the hushing dusk under a swollen silver moon
Dm C Gm
I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom
F
She twines her spines up slowly
C
To ward the boiling sun
Gm
And when I touched her skin
Bb
My fingers ran with blood
F
Oh rise with me forever
C
Across the silent sand
Gm
And the stars will be your eyes
Bb
And the wind
Will be my hand
Dm
Will by my hand
VIOLIN SOLO
Dm C Bb
VERSE
Dm C Gm
Strange hunger haunted me, the looming shadows danced
Dm C Gm
Fell down to the thorny brush and felt a trembling hand
Dm C Gm
And when the last light warms the rocks and the rattle snakes unfold
Dm C Gm
Cats will come to drag away your bones
F
She twines her spines up slowly
C
To ward the boiling sun
Gm
And when I touched her skin
Bb
My fingers ran with blood
F
Oh rise with me forever
C
Across the silent sand
Gm
And the stars will be your eyes
Bb
And the wind
Will be my hand
Dm
Will by my hand
