C           Am  Em             C
  I knew a girl  with sad blue eyes
             Am      Em              C
  But at the feast I lost my psychic prize
           Am           F             Am
  I did forget what the tarot maid did say
C          Am Em          C
  I burn today,  I burn today

Verse 2:
C               Am    Em         C
  Our house was filled with many birds
              Am       Em               C
  She said to me I can understand their words
                Am   F        Am
  The land will shake so run away
C          Am Em          C
  I burn today,  I burn today

Chorus:

  Hold my heart strings and have yourself a strum
          Am   F                 Am
  No nevermore this song will we play

  I feel her arms and her legs are all around
  And we make love beside the waterway

  How many lives I really do no know
  Though with the rain I know it will return

  Today I burn,  Today I burn
