[Verse 1]
C5               (C)
Wars are raising for her
C5         (Dsus2) D
Crusades to adore her
     C5                      D
The light of your afterword

        C5              Am
Are you losing her true nature
         Am           D
When you loosen nomenclature
         C5                     D
When you gift another moniker?

        C5            (C)
What’s true is like a sickle
      C5    (Dsus2)   D
It’ll cut you to the middle
          C5                       D
That your rose is without a thorn

            C5                  Am
But no, my mouth don’t taste of metal
         Am               D
From the pot here to the kettle
   C5                                C5
I think we got a lot we gotta learn


[Chorus]
    C5             C          F
And even though by any other name
      F                  C   (C5)         D
Her scent would linger sweetly, all the same
 F              C
Call her briar long enough
            D                          C
And you’ll tangle up the true and the fable

[Verse 2]
      C5
Your dowry, it ain’t fooling
     C5                  D
The pyrite is showing through
         C5                       D
It won’t buy you that empty tomb

          C5          Am
And no alchemic incantation
       Am             D
For a counterfeit salvation
       C5                         D
Can appease your leviathan groom

     C5               (C)
No, love’ll get you slaughtered
       C5         D
Like a ram at the altar
        C5                                   D
What is safe ain’t the same as what is good

        C5             Am
So lay compress to the aching
         Am             D
Of your body made for breaking
         C5                                C5
Oh we’ve got a lot of breaking left to do


[Chorus]
      C5         C           F
Cause even under any other creed
      F               C    (C5)          D
The crucifix and the hangman – they both agree
  F               C
Change comes so cheaply
      D                         C
For those of us already at the table
