Intro : Bb Ab

Bb
She lays on the wall

watching the strangers drift away
           Bb    Ab
mid-day's ore--thick

with the sun of Arabia
     Bb             Ab
she surrenders her voices
Bb
they gather, on the wind

talkin, chanting, breathing
                C#-F-Bb-C#
into her body...yesterday
F - C# - (C#-D# - E - F#) (walkup)

         Bb
Awakened beside
 Ab                 Bb
the scent of burnt sugar--on the skin
             Ab
painting eyes--thick
Bb
with the color she brings in
Bb
oh, and sure and strong
when the lightning tumbles down
don't you frown
everything will be
in time for this evening

C#          Fm
if there's secrets
              Bb
she has to be party to
       C#
every one of them
Fm            Bb
if there's heaven
                C#
she gets to the heart

(D# - E  - F#) walkup
and you'll know...
E        Abm7

E                 B
when I run out of blue
         E        Ab7
help me rise instead
E                  B
then I will run to you
E        Ab7
why she says
E                 B
when I run out of blue
         E       Ab
give me red instead
C#
now let me run... (let me run)
