Intro: Am
Am E
From the dusty mesa
Dm Am
Her looming shadow grows
Am E
Hidden in the branches
Dm Am
of the poison creosote
C
She twines her spines up slowly
G
Towards the boiling sun
Dm
And when I touched her skin
F
My fingers ran with blood
Am
Am E
In the hushing dusk
Dm Am
Under a swollen silver moon
Am E
I came walking with the wind
Dm Am
To watch the cactus bloom
C
A strange hunger haunted me,
G
The looming shadows danced
Dm
I fell down to the thorny brush
F
And felt the trembling hand
Am
Am E
When the last light warms the rocks
Dm Am
And the rattlesnakes unfold
Am E
Mountain cats will come
Dm Am
to drag away your bones
C
And rise with me forever
G
Across the silent sand
Dm
And the stars will be your eyes
F
And the wind will be my hands
Am
