Intro: Am chordAm


Am chordAm E chordE
From the dusty May sun
Dm chordDm Am chordAm
Her looming shadow grows
Am chordAm E chordE
Hidden in the branches
Dm chordDm Am chordAm
of the poison creosote

C chordC
She twines her spines up slowly
G chordG
Towards the boiling sun
Dm chordDm
And when I touched her skin
F chordF Am chordAm
My fingers ran with blood

Am chordAm E chordE
In the hushing dusk
Dm chordDm Am chordAm
Under a swollen silver moon
Am chordAm E chordE
I came walking with the wind
Dm chordDm Am chordAm
To watch the cactus bloom

C chordC
And strange hands halted me,
G chordG
The looming shadows danced
Dm chordDm
I fell down to the thorny brush
F chordF Am chordAm
And felt the trembling hands

Am chordAm E chordE
When the last light warms the rocks
Dm chordDm Am chordAm
And the rattlesnakes unfold
Am chordAm E chordE
Mountain cats will come
Dm chordDm Am chordAm
to drag away your bones

C chordC
And rise with me forever
G chordG
Across the silent sand
Dm chordDm
And the stars will be your eyes
F chordF Am chordAm
And the wind will be my hands

the line "and strange hands haunted me" is actually "a strange hunger haunted me"
