Ravenstag

Capo 3 Am E blue as night, the ravenstag was flying E Am as you plucked the hyde, the beast stood crying Dm Am was it ever not enough to torment enough, cried out the blood in the veins E Am of the ravenstag who told me your name Am E i've started dreaming the most peculiar pictures E Am the blacks and whites and colors are richer Dm Am did you feel it kind enough, yes kind enough to plant the seed in my brain E Am of the ravenstag whispering your name Am E vulgar fruit, it gleams like vulgar diamonds E Am a picture of my own designing Dm Am wish they'd said, "beware the signs, the meats and wines of the velvet joy and the pain E Am of the ravenstag when he calls your name" F, C, C, Dm, E F, C, C, Dm, E, E, E, E (bridge, bach aria medley) Am E come into my parlor says the spider E Am close my eyes, the space between heartbeats grows wider Dm Am maybe i'm not brave enough or sane enough to steady the knife of the gaze E Am of the ravenstag as it whispers my name Am Am E morning's come and the ravenstag's behind me E Am i'm a crimson stain and no wind can dry me Dm Am is an enemy enough to keep the love of a monster that swallows and maims E Am the same ravenstag who knows my name? F, C
