Wake The Witch
View chords used in this chart
[Verse]
Em
I walk in worlds that no one can come by
G
I seek the trees and whispering stones
Am C
I dance at night and sing to the firelight
Em E4
To wake the witch who lives within me
Em
I run with wolves and howl at the pale moon
G
I conjure storms that no man can tame
Am C
I love with fire so red it consumes you
Em E4
To wake the witch who lives within me
[Chorus]
G Am
Music charms me like a spell
C E4
Voices fill me with tales to tell
G Am
All the women burned before
C Em
Are burning in my soul
G Am
All my darkness, all my fears
C E4
Fall away when their ghosts are near
G Am
Chanting, dancing, calling me
C E4 G Am C E4
To wake the witch in meeeee
[Verse]
Em
I sought the trees to flee all who hurt me
G
I whispered spells to endure their stones
Am C
I hid in dreams so no one could find me
Em E4
To veil the witch who lives within me
Em
And now I fly at night like a raven
G
I ride with ghouls and devils 'til dawn
Am C
And in the forest I've found my haven
Em E4
To wake the witch who lives within me
[Chorus]
G Am
Music charms me like a spell
C E4
Voices fill me with tales to tell
G Am
All the women burned before
C Em
Are burning in my soul
G Am
All my darkness, all my fears
C E4
Fall away when their ghosts are near
G Am
Chanting, dancing, calling me
C E4 G Am C E4
To wake the witch in meeeeee
