Capo 6
Intro
[C/G] [Em] [G] [C/G] [Em] [G] [C/G] [Gsus2] [G]
==
Her [G] eyes and words are [G] so icy
Oh but she [Em] burns
Like [C/G] rum on the [G] fire
[G] Hot and fast and [G] angry
As she [G] can be
[Em] I walk [C/G] my days on a [G] wire.
[C/G] It looks [Em] ugly, [C/G] but it's [Em] clean,
[C/G] Oh [Em] momma, don't [Gsus2] fuss over [G] me.
The way she [C/G] tells me I'm [Em] hers and she is [G] mine
Open [C/G] hand or closed [Em] fist would be [G] fine
The [C/G] blood is rare and [Gsus2] sweet as cherry [G] wine.
[G] Calls of guilty [G] fall on me
[G] All while she [Em] stains
The [C/G] sheets of some [G] other
[G] Thrown at me so [G] powerfully
[G] Just like she [Em] throws with the [C/G] arm of her [G] brother.
[C/G] But I [Em] want it, [C/G] it's a [Em] crime
[C/G] That she's [Em] not around [Gsus2] most of the [G] time.
The way she [C/G] shows me I'm [Em] hers and she is [G] mine
Open [C/G] hand or closed [Em] fist would be [G] fine
[C/G] Blood is rare and [Gsus2] sweet as cherry [G] wine.
{Guitar Solo}
Her [G] fight and fury [G] is fiery
[G] Oh but she [Em] loves
Like [C/G] sleep to the [G] freezing
[G] Sweet and right and [G] merciful
[G] I'm all but [Em] washed
In the [C/G] tide of her [G] breathing.
[C/G] And it's [Em] worth it, [C/G] it's [Em] divine
[C/G] And [Em] I have this [Gsus2] some of the [G] time.
The way she [C/G] shows me I'm [Em] hers and she is [G] mine
Open [C/G] hand or closed [Em] fist would be [G] fine
[C/G] Blood is rare and [Gsus2] sweet as cherry [G] wine.
