From the [E] dusty mason, [Dm] her looming shadow [A] [Am] grows
Hidden in [E] the branches of [A] the [Dm] poisoned [Am] creosote
[C] She twines his mind up slowly [G] towards the boiling sun
[Dm] Then when I touched her skin, [F] my fingers ran blood
[Am]
In the [E] hushing dusk under [D] a swollen [Dm]
[A] silver moon
[Am] I came walking [E] with the wind [A] to watch [Dm] the cactus [Am] bloom
A [C] strange hunger haunted me, [G] her looming shadow's dance
[Dm] As I fell down to the thorny brush [F] and felt a trembling hand
[Am]
When the [E] landmine warms the [A] rots and makes a [Am] roar
[E] And [Dm] the dragon's blade [A] it grows
[C] Then rise with me in fire, [G] cut across the silent sand
[Dm] And the stars will be your eyes, [F] and your wind will be my hand
[Am] [E]
[D]
Hidden in [E] the branches of [A] the [Dm] poisoned [Am] creosote

[Am]
In the [E] hushing dusk under [D] a swollen [Dm]
[A] silver moon
[Am] I came walking [E] with the wind [A] to watch [Dm] the cactus [Am] bloom
