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