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
