Black Flowers Please

Intro/Vocals Only:

Oh when I saw you standing there
Wild flowers dying in your hair
Child of harvest time coughing up 
musk
Black flowers' dull perfume trailing
 in dusk
Hoisting dark pennants at the spike 
of the hill
Your smile started bleeding and then
 the mill
Shearing and sharing your love and 
your rage
Whilst dog's head descending
Spewed out a new age

It isn't very good
In the dark dark wood
In the middle of the night
When there isn't any light

Main Part:

C/E                             G
There are four corners to the world 
she said
C/E                             G
And every one is manned with fire 
and ice
C/E                             G
Through black glass darkly I can see
 her truth
C/E                             G
Arrayed and raised and raising walls
 of war

Em                             
She points to squares of wax and 
    G
writes backwards
Em                              G
I veil my face from her and from her
 light
Em                              G
The pointless games she plays out 
for want of power
C/E                             G
To slake her bloodlust and for sake 
of pain
C/E                           
Her ugly shapes breeding in her 
  G
secret mound
C                               G
The Call of Aethyrs and the Dog Star
 Crawl
C                               G
There's one cracked bottle with no 
label on
C                               G
She nods and gestures limply with 
her broken smile
C                                 
Do you fear death she says to me 
      G
and shows me seven stars
C                               G
The seven seals of her seven years
C               G
of Rose Cross madness
Em                     A
Well christus tell us that little 
children suffer
C/E                     Em
It's only right that we should learn
 to suffer too!

Interlude/Vocals Only:

The first seven are red as blood
The second seven not so red
The third seven like whitish smoke
And all the world seemed to be in 
darkness
And all the world seemed to be in 
brightness

C/E                     G
There are four corners to the world 
I lie
C/E                     G
In forms of fire have lurked across 
its floor
C/E                             G
And little banners displaying their 
little creeds
C/E                             G
Have made our season on earth as red
 as poppy fields
( C/E   G ) x2
C/E                             G
There are four corners to the world 
she sighs
C/E                             G
There are four corners to the world 
she cries
C/E                             G
There are four corners to the world 
she lies
C/E                             G
There are four corners to the world 
she dies
