[Db] I [Ab] saw it as you flew between [Eb] my reason Like [Bb] a raven in the night [Bbm] time winds and
[Db] death I wore [Ab] a chain upon my wrist that bears your
[Db] name You
[Ab] touched it and you [Eb] wore it
And [Bbm] you kept it in your pillow all the [Db] same My heart's [Ab] like a burn, I stomped out [Db]
my
arms I thought myself [Bbm] a keeper, she thought I
meant [Eb] her harm She [Ab] thought I was the archer, a weapon [Db] that
overworks But I could never [Gb] shoot down [Db]
my heart
[Ab] I remember The [Gb]
[Db] [Ab]
white walls of your dress, the new
[Db] mustang
scarlet red You [Ab] fled upon the coast, oh, [Eb] like a young
man
[Bbm] In the foreign field of [Db] death
Oh, [Ab] what an empty one it was, it [Db] was all I heard you say
You [Ab] never closed your eyes at night and learned to [Eb] love through your life
[Bbm] Instead you moved [Db] away My heart's like [Ab] a burn, I stomped out [Db] my arms
I thought [Ab] myself a [Bbm] keeper, she thought I meant her [Eb] harm
She thought I [Ab] was the archer, a weapon [Db] that overworks
But I could never [Bbm] shoot [Ab] [Gb] down
[Db] my heart
