Far From Any Road(Chords)

	        Am              E 
From the dusty May sun 
Dm                    Am 
Her looming shadow grows 
Am              E 
Hidden in the branches 
Dm                 Am 
of the poison creosote 

         C 
She twines her spines up slowly 
    G 
Towards the boiling sun 
     Dm 
And when I touched her skin 
      F             Am 
My fingers ran with blood 

 Am              E 
In the hushing dusk 
          Dm              Am 
Under a swollen silver moon 
    Am           E 
I came walking with the wind 
    Dm                 Am 
To watch the cactus bloom 

       C 
And strange hands halted me, 
       G 
The looming shadows danced 
    Dm 
I fell down to the thorny brush 
     F              Am 
And felt the trembling hands 

  Am                   E 
When the last light warms the rocks 
          Dm         Am 
And the rattlesnakes unfold 
  Am               E 
Mountain cats will come 
    Dm             Am 
to drag away your bones 

      C 
And rise with me forever 
   G 
Across the silent sand 
         Dm 
And the stars will be your eyes 
         F                 Am 
And the wind will be my hands
