Single Phial

Am                G             
I have walked the earth so many 
C                 Am
times before your birth,

Am             G          Am
Today is only yesterday's tomorrow.

           Am          G           
And as the gardener in Eden it was 
C               Am
I who sowed the seed then,

     Am           G               
I've come here to reclaim this 
      C
life you borrow.

Em           Dsus2          Em  
    Singing 'ring a ring o' 
             C              Em
rosies' for your final lullabye,

         Dsus2          C         
Have you any prayers to make 
      Cmaj7              Em
before you wave your last goodbye?

           Dsus2          Em      
I bring 'a pocket full of posies' 
        C                 Em
- lay a wreath to ease my guilt,

       Dsus2          C
As the light's go out forever not 
one drop of blood was spilt.


[Chorus]

Em          Am              Em
    As yet unwritten history -

               Am                  
once more I'll stride the lightning
 Em
 road,

      Am         C
Identity a mystery -

          Cmaj7 Dsus2  Em
my burden is Pandora's load.

           Am            Em
Traversing endless centuries -

              Am                 
disguised behind Death's lipless 
Em
smile,

            Am           C     
I hide that my intention is to 
Cmaj7            Dsus2
pour this single phial.

[Verse 2]
         Am               G  
I'd have rather seen your face 
         C         Am
almost any other place,

              Am                G 
Still here we meet - always the 
              Am
way in this profession.

          Am            G         
And as I gaze into your eyes I see
     C              Am
 the glimmer within dies,

         Am             G         
From the moment I first make my 
      C
dark confession.

Em              Dsus2            
    How could I swear I would be 
Em              C              Em
there for you until your dying day,

Dsus2          C                  
Certain in the knowledge that it's
 Cmaj7        Em
 not that far away?

       Dsus2            Em 
So you leave me sitting here 
             C             Em
bewildered as a new dead ghost,

        Dsus2       C
While I try to justify destroying 
that which I love most.

Em         Dsus2        Em      
  The dark millenium is ending -
       C              Em
 final daze of the decayed,

      Dsus2             C         
And a reign of tears is falling - 
         Cmaj7             Em
it's the judgement eve parade.

         Dsus2           Em       
Though I wash my hands a thousand 
        C                       Em
times - still the guilt remains,

             Dsus2              C
She stole my heart - I took her life
 ...
(and yet I never knew her name)

[Pre-chorus]
                     Am        
Out with a whimper - not with a 
       Em  Am
bang.

         Em                        
And they all gathered round when 
  Am                 C  Cmaj7  Dsus2
the church bells rang.

         Em                    
Singing 'bring out your dead' - 
          Am                 Em  Am
they'll stretch for miles,

      Em                       
To be bourne to their graves in

single files.
