D A Em
Found yourself a serpent this time
Bm D A Em
Flames are spitting sure from his tongue and his eyes
Bm D A Em
Lusting for the fruits we have tried
Bm D A Em
Pluck yourself an eyelash and pray that your bones will rise
C G Em Am
Speaking in tongues you've got gin in your belly
C G Em Am
Yes something was wrong from the start
C G Em Am
With eyes wide and dark you have something to tell me
C G Em Am
I carry your bones in my heart
Bm D A Em
Riding on horseback he came
Bm D A Em
Darkness in his fingertips, eyes just the same
Bm D A Em
Told me there was no one to blame
Bm D A Em
I was all the while clenching the omen you gave to me
C G Em Am
Rise with the sun and the skies are wide amber
C G Em Am
I dreamt of your calling again
C G Em Am
You told me to run from temptations of grandeur
C G Em Am
That come with the visions of him
Bm D
Deep in my sleep,
A Em
Bones I was holding,
Bm D A Em
Swallowed by hunger to see you again
Bm D
Running through fields,
A Em
Sweet seas of golden,
Bm D A Em
There it was you in the house near the grain
Bm D
Dark like the night,
A Em
High like the noontime,
Bm D A Em
Bitter and begging my dear don't you go
Bm D
Your eyes were all wild,
A Em
Your lips took to woo mine,
Bm D A Em
You grabbed me and tugged at my soul through your own
Bm D A Em
I knew it well then we'd go down to the river
Bm D A Em
You'd cleanse what was left of me under the tide
Bm D A Em
The sun turned to ash and your body was withered
Bm D A Em
Your bones I let go and the dream did subside
