[Verse 1]

Am
Begin again
No easy trick
Without a guide or walking stick
Begin before the bells of twilight peal

[Verse 2]

Am
Downhill town
The road ahead
Spiral, as a serpent’s bed
A teaspoon of desire for my meal

[Pre-Chorus]

  F/C   G/B   G/D
I trade my    tears
   F   E   Dm/F
To ask the Lord

[Verse 3]

Am
The road is steep
The air is thin
I hear a voice inside my skin
Don’t be afraid
Your days won’t end with night
Feel the sun
Drink the rain
Let your body heal its pain
Bathe beneath a waterfall of light

No deadly nightshade, Belladonna

Dare lay a leaf on me
