            Em             C7M
When the rain came falling down
        Em6                     C7M
On the darkness at the edge of town
         Em                 C7M                Em6  C7M
And they came to steal the lightning from the sky
          Em                   C7M
Yeah, the push might come to shove
          Em6                C7M
And your love might not be enough
     Em               C7M            Em6  C7M
To free you from the fears that paralyse

Am                 C                               
 Yet they used to love you for the way you sang your 
   Em Em11+ Em11 Em11+ Em Em11+ Em11 Em11+
soul
Am                     C
 Now they've come to claim you through the night
      G                                            B7
The ghosts have come to steal the light outta your eyes

          Em            G
But your mama and your wife
           A9               Em
Cuts your heart out with a knife
          C                D9                Em
And they left you for the dogs to lick your bones
      C                D9
They made you cry the rain
          G                 B7
But they love you just the same
             C            D9                Em Em11+ 
Before your god, and the devil, took your soul

          Em             C7M
Tell me what did you bequeath
        Em6                  C7M
To the girl with the freaky teeth
           Em                     C7M              Em6 
Well, she shown you things she'd stolen from the queen
  C7M

        Em                 C7M
She'll have your hearts desire
        Em6                  C7M
As she danced back into the fire
          Em            C7M             Em6   C7M
With the Holy Men who stole your tambourine

Am                 C                               
 Yet they used to love you for the way you sang your
