Her Melancholy Muse

INTRO: C

                     G             
In the darkest hour, midnight blues
  F

                  C
The shadow of her soul will choose
                       G           
She hears the call and can't refuse
  F

                C
Her melancholy muse


                     G             F
Her feather bed lies on the ground
                      C
Where hours before he laid her down
                        G          
Like birds of pray they try to lose
 F

                C   F C
Her melancholy muse


Continues after the ad
    F                C
His hair was tangled in her hands
     G                    
They fell and flew through 
 F     C      F
borderlands
                     C
And what was her and what was him
    G
Was lost under the skin


INSTRUMENTAL: C  G  F  C    G  F  C


    F                   C
The moon shines down on waters deep
    G                  F       C 
She prays for love her soul to 
     F
keep
                   C
And as the glowing ember dies
  G
A whisper of smoke will rise


  C                  G
A nighthawk's on the wing tonight
    F                  C
She sings for him, she sings the 
blues
                      G           F
She sings for love to win or lose
                C      G    F
