     C                                      Am 
Her eyes and words are so icy, oh, but she burns 
      F          C 
Like rum on a fire 
 C 
Hot and fast and angry as she can be 
Am         F         C 
I walk my days on a wire 


Dm7             Em 
   It looks ugly, but it's clean 
Dm7                 Em       G 
   Oh mamma, don't fuss over me 


C                         Am7         C 
 The way she tells me I'm hers and she is mine 
C                    Am7            C 
 Open hand or closed fist would be fine 
      F       Am       Em        Am        C 
But blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine 


  C                                          Am 
Calls of guilty thrown at me all while she stains 
      F             C 
The sheets of some other 
  C                                        Am 
Thrown at me so powerfully just like she throws 
          F         C 
With the arm of her brother 


Dm7             Em 
   But I want it, it's a crime 
Dm7                       Em          G 
   That she's not around most of the time 


C                         Am7         C 
 The way she tells me I'm hers and she is mine 
C                    Am7            C 
 Open hand or closed fist would be fine 
      F       Am       Em        Am        C 
But blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine 


Guitar Solo 


     C                                    Am 
Her fight and fury's fiery, oh, but she loves 
       F           C 
Like sleep to the freezing 
 C                                         Am 
Sweet and right and merciful, I'm all but washed 
        F           C 
In the tide of her breathing 


Dm7                 Em 
   And it's worth it, it's divine 
Dm7             Em            G 
   I have this some of the time 


C                         Am7         C 
 The way she tells me I'm hers and she is mine 
C                    Am7            C 
 Open hand or closed fist would be fine 
      F       Am       Em        Am 
But blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine
