Tonality
Am Em Dm C G F



Am              Em
From the dusty mesa
Dm                    Am
Her looming shadow grows
Am              Em
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             Am
My fingers ran with blood

 Am              Em
In the hushing dusk
          Dm              Am
Under a swollen silver moon
    Am           Em
I came walking with the wind
    Dm                 Am
To watch the cactus bloom

       C
And strange hunger haunted me,
       G
The looming shadows danced
    Dm
I fell down to the thorny brush
     F              Am
And felt the trembling hands

  Am                   Em
When the last light warms the rocks
          Dm         Am
And the rattlesnakes unfold
  Am               Em
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                 Am
And the wind will be my hands
