Tom: A
Introdução:
Am E
blue as night, the ravenstag was flying
E Am
as you plucked the hyde, the beast stood crying
Dm Am
was it ever not enough to torment enough, cried out the blood in the veins
E Am
of the ravenstag who told me your name
Am E
i've started dreaming the most peculiar pictures
E Am
the blacks and whites and colors are richer
Dm Am
did you feel it kind enough, yes kind enough to plant the seed in my brain
E Am
of the ravenstag whispering your name
Am E
vulgar fruit, it gleams like vulgar diamonds
E Am
a picture of my own designing
Dm Am
wish they'd said, "beware the signs, the meats and wines of the velvet joy and the pain
E Am
of the ravenstag when he calls your name"
F, C, C, Dm, E
Am E
come into my parlor says the spider
E Am
close my eyes, the space between heartbeats grows wider
Dm Am
maybe i'm not brave enough or sane enough to steady the knife of the gaze
E Am
of the ravenstag as it whispers my name
Am E
morning's come and the ravenstag's behind me
E Am
i'm a crimson stain and no wind can dry me
Dm Am
is an enemy enough to keep the love of a monster that swallows and maims
E Am
the same ravenstag who knows my name?
