Am     G         D   C
Like the hammer loves the nail
                      D               C
But the heart of a man is a simple one
               D               C
Small and soft, flesh and blood
                           D    C
And all that it loves is a woman
           D
A woman is all that it loves

[Verse 2]
    C                     D                  C
And Hades is king of the scythe and the sword
                           D             C
He covers the world in the colour of rust
                      D
He scrapes the sky and scars the earth
       C                    D
And he comes down heavy and hard on us
    C                    D                C
But even that hardest of hearts unhardened
                 D
Suddenly when he saw her there

[Verse 3]
C                 D
 Persephone in her mother's garden
C                     D
Sun on her shoulders, wind in her hair
    C                        D               C
The smell of the flowers she held in her hand
                                  D
And the pollen that fell from her fingertips
    C                  D         C
And suddenly Hades was only a man
                         D
With a taste of nectar upon his lips, singing
C        D        Em
La la la la la la la
C        D        E
La la la la la la la
C        D        Em
La la la la la la la
C        D
La La La La La La
C        D        Em
La la la la la la la
C        D        E
La la la la la la la
C        D        Em
La la la la la la la
C        D        Em
La la la la la la la
