The Heavy Horses


Tom: F

C

(Verse 1)
F                                      C7
Trembling hands grasping the neck of my lover
C7
With shadows surrounding us both
              F
and acting as cover
F
Begging and pleading while praying
                  C7
that someone comes near. While the silence
                                   F
of miles ensuring that no one will hear


(Instrumental)
F  C  Gm7  C7
C  C7  F

(Verse 2)
F
Holding her down  the flesh on my fingers
      C7
turns white. Whispering to her  ensuring that
          F
she'll be alright. With one final breath 
                                 C7
I watched the life fade from her eyes
C7
Just as open and blue and still 
                     F
as these cold winter skies

(Outro)
F  C  Gm  C7
C  C7  C  F
C  C7  Gm  C
F  C  C7 
F (one strum for the last chord)
