F#m                            D9 
I've faced the fathoms in your deep 
F#m                         D9  
withstood the suitors quiet siege 
F#m                             G7M  G5  
pulled down the heavens just to please  you 
 G7M G5      G7M G5        G7M G5     
appease you the wind   blows and I      know

 |  A  |  

           Bm7                        A    
I can't go on digging roses from your grave 
          Bm7             A 
to linger on beyond the beyond 
                  Bm7 
where the willows weep 
               A                 Bm7 
and whirlpools sleep you'll find me 
    G7M G5     G7M G5 
the coarse tide reflects sky 
  

        D9            F#m 
and the night mare rides on 
        D9            F#m 
and the night mare rides on 
         D9        F#m 
with a december black psalm 
        D9            F#m 
and the night mare rides on 
  

     G7M G5      G7M G5 
what I      fear is lost   here 
    G7M G5        G7M G5 
the wind   blows and I      know 
  
all you have to do is run away 

and steal yourself from me 

become a mystery to gaze into 

you're so cruel in all you do 

but still I believe I believe in you

G5                            G5 
so may you come with your own knives 
                     G5 
you'll never take me alive 
                              G5 
with all the force of what is true 
                       A 
is there nothing I can do? 
  

           Bm7                        A 
I can't go on digging roses from your grave 
          Bm7             A 
to linger on beyond the beyond 
                  Bm7 
where the willows weep 
                A                 Bm7 
 and whirlpools sleep you'll find me 

  
        D9            F#m 
and the night mare rides on 
        D9            F#m 
and the night mare rides on 
         D9        F#m 
with a december black psalm 
        D9            F#m 
and the night mare rides on

F#m                        D9  F#m  D9 
to hold the flower I can't keep
