Tom: Em

Bm               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
