Intro: G D G
G D G
Deep in the red leaf forest
C G
A hunter with his crossbow
C G
Came upon the secret pool
A D
Where Diana took her hair down
G D G
And he saw her perfect body
C G
Shining through the thickets
C G
Such a blinding beauty
D G
He could not say a word
C
And though he stood there speechless
G C
She felt his eyes upon her
G C
And she turned him to a white stag
A D
And set his dogs upon him
G D G
And the dogs didn't know their master
C G
They tore that stag to pieces
C G
Then called and called to him
D G
Who couldn't say a word
G D G C G C G A D C Bm Am
G D G
But as he lay there bleeding
C G
He smiled up at the sunset
C G
She who took his life from him
A D D7
Was worth twice the cost
G D G
Swirls of deep red leaves
C G
Fell on his perfect body
C G
And he smiled up at the trees
D G
But could not say a word
C
When the fig tree blooms
G C
When the vine is red with berries
G C
Swallows soon will gather
A D C Bm Am
To steal every drop of sugar
G C G
And the world turns in circles
C G
In such wheels of burning beauty
C G
Each morning kills the night
D G
Without a single word
C G
Each morning kills the night
D C Bm Am G
Without a single word
