Bm G A
Down they fell like the children of eden
Bm G A
Down they fell like the tower
G Bm E
As the land relinquished her ghost
Bm G A
Heed the sirens, take shelter, my lover
Bm G A
Flee the fire that devours
G Bm
But the sight held me fixed
G A A Bm G
Like a bayonet against my throat (ooooh)
Bm G A
Neither plague or famine tempered my courage
Bm G A
Nor did raids make me cower
G Bm
But his translucent skin
G A
Made me shiver deep within my bones
A Bm G
Ooooh
Bm A
It was a pale white horse
Bm A
With a crooked smile
Bm A A
And i knew it was my time
A Bm G
Ooooh
Bm A
It was the raging storm
Bm A
Of a foreign war
Bm A A
And a face i'd seen before
A Bm G
Ooooh
