  			Gm                 F#m/C# 
The woods eats the woman  
    Gm              F#m/C#     Gm     
and dumps her honey-body in the mud 
    Gm                    F#m/C# 
Her dress floats down the well  
       Gm             	        F#m/C#           Gm    F#m/C#   Gm 
and it assumes the shape of the body of a little girl 
 
Yeah I recognize that girl 
She stumbled in some time last loneliness 
But I could not stand to touch her now 
My one and onlyness. 
 
Chorus 
Gm 
Deep in the woods, Deep in the woods 
            Em      D   A      F#m  
Deep in the woods a funeral is swinging. 
 
Worms make their cruel design  
Saying D-I-E into her skin 
Saying DEAD into belly and DEATH into shoulder 
Well last night she kissed me but than DEATH was upon her. 
 
Chorus 
 
Now the killed waits for the killer 
And the trees all nod their heads, they are agreed 
This knife feels like a knife feels like a knife that feels like it's feed. 
 
Yeah I recognize that girl 
I took her from rags right through to stitches (pray for me now) 
Oh baby, tonight we sleep in separate ditches. 
 
Chorus 
 
Bm                    Bb 
Love is for fools and all fools are lovers 
     Bm                      Bb 
It's raining on my house and none of the others 
Bm                    Bb 
Love is for fools and God knows I'm still one 
    Bm                         Bb 
The sidewalks are filled with love's lonely children  (3X this line) 
 
     E                                   B 
The sidewalk regrets that we had to kill them.
