 D and G to start with some slide guitar and piano


[Verse 1]
 D                            G 
So she woke up, woke up from where she was, lyin' 
still
     D                                         
Said "I, I gotta do somethin' about where we're 
 G 
goin'"
 D 
  Stepped on steam train
 G 
  Stepped out of the driving rain, maybe
 D                               G 
  Run from the darkness, in the night.


[Chorus]
Singing
 A 
Ah,
         C/G   G 
Ah-la-la-la-de-day
 A        C/G   G 
Ah-la-la-la-de-day
      D              G 
Ah-la-la-de-day




[Verse 2]
 D                         G 
Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth
 D                                G 
  I see seven towers, but I only see one way out
          D 
You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking
 G 
scream without raising your voice
                    D 
You know I took the poison
                               G 
From the poison stream, then I floated, out of here


[Chorus 2]
Singing
 A 
Ah,
         C/G   G 
Ah-la-la-la-de-day
 A        C/G   G 
Ah-la-la-la-de-day
      D 
Ah-la-la-de-day


[Interlude/Bridge]
 D                      G 
Oooooooooooo,  Ooo Ooo Ooo  Oooooo
 D                      G 
Oooooooooooo,  Ooo Ooo Ooo  Oooooo


[Verse 3]
 D 
She runs through the streets with eyes painted red
 G 
Under a black belly of clouds in the rain
 D 
in through a doorway, she brings me
 G 
white gold and pearls stolen from the sea
      D                           G 
she is raging she is raging and storm blows up in her
eyes


[Ending Chorus]
She will,
 A          C/G    G        A 
suffer the needle chill,
                 C/G  G   D 
She's running to stand,   still.

(Harmonica Riff played over D and G chord progression
to end song)


 C/G  3 3 5 5 5 x
