Am C
Show me your stripes said the zebra to
Am C
The wicked spider in the morning dew
Am C
I will provide for you shelter and wine
Am C
If you can prove that you are of my kind
Chorus
Am C
O ho Maria!
F E Am
I'd break my wooden bones for you
Am C F
You took my crystal heart
E
And shook it through and through
Am C
O ho Maria!
F E Am
You broke my brittle bones in two
Am C F
You shook your silver hair
E Am
And sent me to the moon
Am
Am C
And then the spider turned onto its back
Am C
Displayed the colors in three neat tracks
Dm
And said, when we go
C Am
We go alone
Am C
And so they crossed the windy field
Am C
The spider provided by the zebra's heels
Am C
And every bird from above did cry
Am C
You will be bitten boy and you'll surely die

Chorus

Am C Am C
F C F C
Am
We may be different
Am
Two sides of the same fence
C
You bring your elegance
F
And me my dumb strength
Am
You were so kind to me
Am
Beneath the willow trees
C
You took my hand in yours
F
And I got down on my knees
Am
They said I couldn't see it clear
Am
They said that it would disappear
C
But when they came and sang their sermon
F
It fell upon deaf ears
Am
Because I see but I cannot hear
Am
And I feel but I cannot fear
C
And I know you to be true
C
When I saw you first come near
Chorus
Am
