Intro
D G D G D
Verse 1
D G D
Well, I recall his parting words
G
Must I accept his fate?
A D G A
Or take myself far from this place
D G D
I thought I heard a black bell toll
G
A little bird did sing
A D
Man has no choice
G A D G D
When he wants everything
Chorus
D A G D
We'll rise above the scarlet tide
D7 A7sus4 G
That trickles down through the mountain
G D A D G D G D
And separates the widow from the bride
Verse 2
(same as first verse)
Man goes beyond his own decision
Gets caught up in the mechanism
Of swindlers who act like kings
And brokers who break everything
The dark of night was swiftly fading
Close to the dawn of the day
Why would I want him
Just to lose him again
Chorus 2x
