[Eb] [Abm]
[Ebm] [Bb]
[Ebm] A bell [Abm] in a churchyard, [Ebm] it yells for [Bb] me to begin.
[Ebm] And my hands, [Abm] they tremble and shake [Ebm] while a chill burrows [Bb] under my skin.
[Gb] [Ebm] It rains [Abm] in the valley,
[Ebm] it rains [Bb] from the skies.
[Ebm] And it's raining [Abm] deep inside my soul, [Ebm] and it pours up and out [Bb] of my [Ebm] eyes.
Not [Abm] long ago, [Bb] you were here [Ebm] in my arms, and I swore [Abm] I would protect [Bb] you from harm.
Now here [Ebm] we are, [Abm] on this hill [Bb] beneath a tree [Ebm] in the churchyard at dawn.
[Abm] How could we fall [Bb] in so far?
[Ebm] [Abm]
[Ebm] [Bb]
[Ebm] The earth [Abm] is a blood-red [Ebm] flame that [Bb] takes to my heels.
[Ebm] And the spade [Abm] grows heavy as lead, [Ebm] but my heart, it is [Bb] heavier still.
[Ebm] In a bough, [Abm] there's a raven, [Ebm] and his eyes fix [Bb] me with a stare.
[Ebm] Then he turns, [Abm] it screams at the sky, [Ebm] and it burns like the truth [Bb] in my ears.
[Ebm] Not [Abm] long ago, [Bb] you were here in my arms, and I swore [Abm] I would protect you [Bb] from harm.
Now [Ebm] here we are, [Abm] on this hill [Bb] beneath a tree in the [Ebm] churchyard at dusk.
How [Abm] could we fall in [Bb] so far?
[Ebm] [Abm] No one should find out [Bb] how it feels, standing [Ebm] here, [Abm] hoping and praying.
[Bb] You'll awake from this awful [Ebm] ordeal.
[Abm] No one should find out [Bb] what it's like, standing [Ebm] here, [Abm] digging a hole in [Bb] which to bury your child and [Ebm] your wife.

[Ebm] When they [Abm] are finished, [Ebm] they look like [Bb] wounds on a hill.
[Ebm] Two graves [Abm] that lay side by side [Ebm] for my life and my lover [Bb] to fill.
[Ebm] No [Abm] one should find out [Bb] how it feels, standing [Ebm] here, [Abm] hoping and praying.
[Bb] You'll awake from this awful [Ebm] ordeal.
No [Abm] one should find out [Bb] what it's like, standing [Ebm] here, not [Abm] having the means to [Bb] buy the medicine to save [Ebm] their lives.
